hex

I cringe then turn  
looking deeply into your eyes  
I gaze in wonder at the beauty of your soul  
but you're lost to me
 
I see you slipping  
into that dark place  
tumultuous want you're on the hunt  
you look on the horizon  
I know you've spied her  
the next woman of your dreams  
 
you resist my call  
you're euphoric, in a trance  
she has captured your attention  
she is corporeal, I am an illusion of faith  
you would bring me into your arms  
but fear the fairy dust would wear off with the touching  
I am shiny in the pain but fade come daylight  
 
I stare at her, envious  
I'm happy for you in the moment  
but know it won't last  
her butterfly wings will come off in your hands  
and you'll be holding a moth  
 
until the next fascination hexes  
understand I love you
