The Brave Coward

Poem


There is a boy

Who takes my dreams

And leaves his tears upon my pillow

While I sleep

He's only brave

When in the dark

Where he cannot be seen

This is where he's free

i want to trap him

Within my heart

And kiss away his pain

No matter how it burns

I'll tear away his boundaries

And flood him with my light

Because he is a coward there

I will hold him tight

He will always run from me

And hide within the darkness

He thinks himself so clever there

Whilst making his escape

But I will not be shaken

I won't give up the chase

He can only find his bravery under the eclipse

Hiding in the shadows where he's safe

He thinks he's free

He is only a brave coward

Who lies to keep himself from me

He doesn't realize

He's already been trapped in the web

Spun by me.
