Transparent Connection

Dusky stars, melted eyes of beauty gazed into
Now only the artificial light shines

Risen from dead past, haunting shadow
The new felt system of recycled emotions

Somehow I think you know, calculated signals
A burn from the past, stings in my brain

Stings attached to my desires and needs pull me in
Do you pull or am I stepping off a ledge

Now the twisting reality makes me sick
Though the acts will undermine my thoughts

A little hell engulfs my life, I can't tell you
And when I am done, this one way connection has left me alone
