My Love, The Traitor

I hold you close as you cry,
There’s fear in your face, horror in your eyes,

I’d ask you what happened there,
But you can’t see the dream, live the nightmare,

Sighs on the wind,
Fingers brush your skin,
There’s a secret written there,
Scribed on you in blood,
Eyes in the dark,
Hands around your heart,
Can’t escape the hunters,
And wouldn’t if you could,

I wonder what you would say,
If you would just wake, from your sleep one day,

You’re living in your dark past,
And I can’t convince you, that it didn’t last,

Sighs on the wind,
Fingers brush your skin,
There’s a secret written there,
Scribed on you in blood,
Eyes in the dark,
Hands around your heart,
Can’t escape the hunters,
And wouldn’t if you could,

You lie in my arms, still,
Your sanity is frayed,
The demons drove you mad,
Who did you betray?

Sighs on the wind,
Fingers brush your skin,
There’s a secret written there,
Scribed on you in blood,
Eyes in the dark,
Hands around your heart,
Can’t escape the hunters,
And wouldn’t if you could,

I hold you close as you die,
There’s fear in your face, horror in your eyes,

Inspired by a musical... is that bad?

Based on Ellen's verse in 'I Still Believe' from Miss Saigon:
"Last night I watch you sleeping,
Once more the nightmare came,
I heard you cry out something,
A word that sounded like a name,
And it hurts me more than I can bear,
Knowing part of you I'll never share,
Never know"
Ah, love it

Ooh, I love the lines in this And no, it's not a crime to use inspiration of any sort.

Good, I was worried it was kinda cheating Glad it's alright!
