Till Near Death Do Us Part

I gave you my heart; you didn't see me.
You saw a toy to be used then discarded.

I came to you naked, trusting and innocent; you didn't see me.
You saw honesty so pure and true you couldn't believe it.

I gave you my mind, body and soul; you didn't see me.
You saw a hopeless fool with no pride.

I took you to a secret place where the treasure
That is my spirit runs wild and free; you didn't see me.
You saw the tear in my living room chair.

I held you in my arms and pressed my body against your wounds
trying to stop your bleeding; you didn't see me.
You saw a succubus trying to make you weak.

I cast my heavenly pearls before carnal swine; you didn't see me.
You only saw the string that held them together
And used it to choke me till I almost died.
