The way I see you
How delicately intertwined good and bad can be
How quickly our mind can jump from one to the next
How different a situation can make things seem
I see the good in everyone
In everything
But in you
The one who boxed meThe one who cut my wings
The one who lashed me
And left scars that won't cure
In you I see the darkness
I see my oppressor and my punisher
The good fades in a second
And then the bad comes crashing like a storm
The light tries to fight the darkness
I try to see the man I love
But when all my wounds tear open at once
My blood and heart pouring from my body
I don't see the one you love
I see the one you fear
