Lyrics to a song composed by a friend.

Subtlety

look up there
can you see
faces in the clouds?
             ~o~
look at me
can you see
hatred in my eyes?
             ~o~
When you look around
you will probably find
what I'm all about
and how I'm gonna play
             ~o~
Maybe you're confused
even maybe amused
at the facts of this
hide and seek charade
             ~o~
when you try to run
i can see you warmth
and you're just the prey
in this sick old game
             ~o~
I love you in my wrath
another reason why
you come back to me
with much subtlety
             ~o~
look around
can you see
people in the sky
             ~o~
look at me
can you see
hunger in my mind
look up there
can you see
faces in the clouds?
             ~o~
look at me
can you see
hatred in my eyes?
             ~o~
When you look around
you will probably find
what I'm all about
and how I'm gonna play
             ~o~
Maybe you're confused
even maybe amused
at the facts of this
hide and seek charade
             ~o~
when you try to run
i can see you warmth
and you're just the prey
in this sick old game
             ~o~
I love you in my wrath
another reason why
you come back to me
with much subtlety
             ~o~
look around
can you see
people in the sky
             ~o~
look at me
can you see
hunger in my mind

Thanks for your support! I will be posting many more, soon. And yes, they're all mine.

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
