I look up in awe

A beautiful yet gentle giant

Your velvety voice soothes me

But it’s not my name you call

The angel descents down

Tall and tiny

Perfect wings tucked as she reaches the ground

She gives you affection

She has your attention

I’m whisked miles away

To a place of darkness

I crawl further into the dark

Trying to lose what’s left of myself

Hoping to erase that image

The perfect angel

That the giant has chosen

How did I think I could even compete

When I’m just a lowly demon

Deserving of nothing but despair and pain

I was foolish to think otherwise

Tears sting my burning cheeks

My head pounding as the night wears on

Thump thump thump

I’m begging for it to break through my chest

So I don’t have to feel its pain again

Just hurry up and break already

What are you waiting for

Just let me die already
