untitled - "I can’t give you my strength tonight..."

~by St.Ego

I can’t give you my strength tonight
It’s been so long since you’ve stood on your own
I can’t give you my hope
Or my fear
You must make this decision without me
And until you do
I can’t even give you my love
You must find these things within yourself
Search out where you hid them away
So very long ago
I see your pain now
And I cannot share it
Hard choices must still be made
And I finally discover
That I cannot hold on to a fruitless dream
Forever.

untitled - "This searching gaze..."

~by St.Ego

This searching gaze,
Those shallow days
Your gorgeous, deadly frown.
I crushed you pride
And then I lied
Until I forced you down
Allowed to chase
The fear you face
And keeping count with time
Our eyes still meet
But indiscreet
And running out of rhyme
The light, it falls upon us
The darkness dissappears
The devil sits beside you
And rekindles all your fears
But where is the deception
In lies I never told
And where is your forgiveness
For the pain I’ll always hold.

untitled - "These are my last real words before I set you free..."

~by St.Ego

These are my last real words before I set you free
My last love
From here I live my life

For what it’s worth
I do love you
For being there for me
For trying
And I remember your kiss
So soft
So full of innocent passion
And I love you
For the sorrows you share
Those little glimpses into your heart
That I could be there to hold for you
And for letting me try to help
Even when it was painful
Even when you had to be alone
And my help became empty words
I love you for your anger
That brought me out inside
That backed me into a corner
And made me fight to keep you
But I can’t keep you anymore
And you will fight this alone.
