Description
I dont know if this was a mistakeIt's been wrapped around my head, over and over
spinning thread through the staircases
up and down,
I knew it would always be with me
Wraps of silk through my hair, and around my whole body
It became part of me
Now its tearing, the red silk, that pressed so tightly into my skin
I know it
Its coming, its coming
And it seems too silent for a hurricane, its too dark for morning
There are too many people tied close to me, it wouldn't seem fair
But it will come anyway
The silk is tightning, and it is black
We
Are
Afraid
At last, we are afraid.
I am losing breath quickly, and the fabric is turning into an inky raven
Breath is a luxury
I always collected the threads on my wrists
Bracelets of black, my handcuffs
They were so tight, but I could still love with my hands behind my back
It was just that easy
But this one, I can't escape from
It is a rope that I cant tear
I thought it was like the others
But this is my noose
It has come
I knew it would
It is time to die a slave
Time to fall asleep in ribbons
And I will finally admit,
Mistake or not, the midnight ribbons will take me
And I am afraid.

And now that you've told me about this, I've read it, and it does seem really beautiful, your writing now is really amazing

Thank you. I would rather not write, when I'm absolutely happy, my thoughts are distracted and never make much sense when I write. I have to try too hard to express what I want to say, I have a song and I know I want to write to it's tune, but there is nothing else, no other motivation to help me. When I'm in misery, it comes naturally.
