Impostor

I was drawn into your darkness
Like a moth into a flame
I loved the gentle way
you kissed
the way you said my name.

It seemed...
the night did listen
when together we did speak
and the air was filled with chanting
and a beautiful mystique

but, then something changed
and still I don't know why
but I knew that I could see
the hatred in your eyes

You claimed to be druid
and sing the ancient songs of olde
but I think your something darker..

I have never seen you marvel
at the sunset or the stars
and, I wonder what kind of
man you are

I once found your darkness thrilling
for there was also light
but now the shadows dance around you
and fill me up with fright

Sometimes I see you in my nightmares
and It seems no one can see
though you claim to be so good
the evil lurks beneath

you play with things you cannot know
with arrogance and pride, and I wonder
do you know that it's corrupting you inside

Where is the sweet, and laughing boy
who once held my heart
who had a healing hand
and knew little of the arts

I feel like your a shadow now
some impostor gone awry
But now I have to wonder
were you always such a lie
