The Burden Of Worship
I watched as the twilight
Traced lines across the contour of your smile
Giving way to the poignant ubiqiuties
of every genuine expression that you gave
Each blemish accenting
the unrecognized exactness
permeating through your veiled
cover-up-dilemma
Acknowledging more
than the fragility
of physical attraction
Cursing the trivial standards
perpetuated by artless fuck boys
and gossip girl cliques
That ransacked your self image
to the point of starvation
and , of mind and body
I could never seem earnest
when mentioning how you glistened
brighter than any high I stumbled upon
And , When waist line insecurities
became an all encompassing hinderance
to your happiness
It was the desperate look
of hopelessness
that spurred my unnatural wrath
Longing to fight for your well being
when it was a futile pursuit
I became the same villain
as those that shamed your very identity
It just seemed so wrong
for you not to see
what I saw in and of you
Traced lines across the contour of your smile
Giving way to the poignant ubiqiuties
of every genuine expression that you gave
Each blemish accenting
the unrecognized exactness
permeating through your veiled
cover-up-dilemma
Acknowledging more
than the fragility
of physical attraction
Cursing the trivial standards
perpetuated by artless fuck boys
and gossip girl cliques
That ransacked your self image
to the point of starvation
and , of mind and body
I could never seem earnest
when mentioning how you glistened
brighter than any high I stumbled upon
And , When waist line insecurities
became an all encompassing hinderance
to your happiness
It was the desperate look
of hopelessness
that spurred my unnatural wrath
Longing to fight for your well being
when it was a futile pursuit
I became the same villain
as those that shamed your very identity
It just seemed so wrong
for you not to see
what I saw in and of you
