The Throttler/My Ethereal

[the tourist]

The throttler watches you sleep through the window, your room
A face hard and damaged with eyes glittering gloom
Hands shake in violence with a strangling hold
Won't let you rest til your body grows cold

Floating weightless through the tangles
Of tomorrow, ever changing
Quiet down the noise
Quiet down the noise
Ever awkward in the word weave
Sounds of breathing, candles bursting
Swallows all my poise
Quiet down the noise
My ethereal
My ethereal

All the spyders in your veins
Come out tonight, they want to play
And poison all the boys
Quiet down the noise
Phantoms left of love that died
Are in your heart and in my mind
Quiet down the noise
I never had a choice
My ethereal
My ethereal

And in this moment we are perfect
In this moment there is nowhere left to hide
In this moment disenchanted
In this moment, you're a thorn nailed in my side

My ethereal
My ethereal

In this moment we are broken
In this moment all I hear is all your lies
In this moment, you're a moth queen
In this moment when I leave I come alive

I'll find you when you sleep
I'll find you in your dreams
I'll find you in your bed
I'll find you when you feed
I'll find you in the stars
I'll bleed your bloody heart
I'll crawl into your head
And rip your eyes apart
I'll find you when you run
I'll chase you down the sun
I'll follow you all night
I'll be there to wake you up
I'll find you make you spin
I'll scoff the mess you're in
I'll rub you till you bleed
And wear your shedding skin

It is a very good writing. I'm having a difficult time trying to interpret it though. It's not that your words are not strong enough, it's just that I've been battling unsettling occurrences. It's an antiipation of something that's lurking worldwide, perhaps like your throttler which looks thru that window of time.

Do continue posting your works. I wrote today Valor & Justice but I won't post it since the meaning is a little different than the title.

I sometimes ask the question "why"...it can only be for a purpose somewhere in the future. Sorry to ramble on.....did you have a specific idea behind your writing?
