"Matricide by candlelight" Written by Christina Bradshaw

Matricide by candlelight 

When demons look at you with loving eyes,

asking for your soul, what are you to do?

Can you tell them no, I can't, its just not right!

Or do you just go ahead because its so hard to say no?

Even though when you go you know

you are walking to your own death, your own beheading?

Yes, you will walk with the demon hand in hand,

your blue eyes the photocopy of hers.

You will fake a smile and hold in the anger,

pain and frustration,

confusion and unconditional hatred

you have all of a sudden become accustomed to again,

one more time, because this is love, right?

She's loved you forever, she's said so, to everyone,

this beautiful blue eyed demon.

She loves you to death.

Yes, this most of all, is truth.

She loves you to death,

and you will let her deathly love strangle the only sense of self

you have ever been able to develop because you crave love from her

you need love from her.. don't you?

Everyone says she loves you.

So when she holds out her hand,

and looks at you with loving eyes, what do you tell the demon?Written By Christina Bradshaw
