It's hard to hide from your glowing eyes,
the touch of your skin is ice cold,
The softness of your voice comforts me,
Your love is tricky,
through the lies and despair,
I will always love you is my biggest fear,
I have only one weakness,
sad enough to say it's you,
but for now I'm only going to say,
"What happened to the old you?"

The author's comments:
I have had lies told, people to be forgiven, places I have always seen, but the people I never want to meet.
