I'm the story you never told. And I'm telling your story now. I'm telling the secrets you want to hide but can't keep hidden. Listen, as the fire crackles and the cat curls up on your lap. Listen, as your hair stands at uncanny reflections. Listen to your heart, screaming. listen, and dream.

Knight In Shinning Amour


I wonder about a lot of things
Like if you could hear my silent screams
Like if you could see my broken heart bleeding
Like how every potime she cuts you
I’m bleeding.

I think about a lot of things
Like how I wished I could protect you from harm
Like how I wished I could stay by your side forever
Like how I’m happy
Just to be beside you

There’s nothing that can come out of this
You are always out of my reach
Smiling and dancing in front
Leaving me behind

I’m just happy
To be needed when you’re down
To be the one you come too
When you’re crying

I wish you wouldn’t smile so
Because I know you’re hurting
And it hurts me even more
To see the fake smile you’re wearing

Maybe if it were someone else
You could be happier
You wouldn’t be upset
You’ll never feel such pain

Because, sweetheart,
You’re the knight in shining amour
You should have a princess
And a happy-ever-after

So don’t pretend you’re fine
We both know you’re not
I won’t tell a soul
So just open up that lock
And let the tears fall, finally.
