Real?
Is this even real
with her stepping over me
in midnight black boots
strapped way up high
like a ballerina trapped inside
rough edges cutting through
my hardened skin
engulfed in whirlwind
with a promise of sin
back alleys, all night caberet
smoke drifting in the allure
of her eyes
calling out for confession
boy do I wish to confess
I see through it all
or what it pretends to be
living only for a fleeting moment
if only this wasn't make believe
with her stepping over me
in midnight black boots
strapped way up high
like a ballerina trapped inside
rough edges cutting through
my hardened skin
engulfed in whirlwind
with a promise of sin
back alleys, all night caberet
smoke drifting in the allure
of her eyes
calling out for confession
boy do I wish to confess
I see through it all
or what it pretends to be
living only for a fleeting moment
if only this wasn't make believe
