Charm
He speaks with a silver tongue
His looks are the ones that make people become undone
He hides behind a facade
His mask is held tightly
Everyone is drawn to him like a moth
Life a flame he utterly destroys them
Then he moves on
His heart still beats alone in the dark
That's where he secretly falls apart
The darkness consumes his mind
He longs to unwind
Hidden deep in the depths of his soul
He simply just wants someone to hold
He thrives on sarcasm
His charm is intoxicating
In dark corners he wonders and is contemplating
Does anyone see me for who I am?
Does anyone want to even understand?
I was once a lamb slaughtered
For years I've justified and bartered
My words are filled with cynical banter
I never pander
Can anyone see through my facade?
Is there a soul out there who will love me for who I am?
