When an eye goes to the blue skies; out Love will arise. Like a phoenix from the fire; from death do I come alive.

In hopes it's your hand in mine. How could I be so blind?

It's always been you. It wasn't until I lost you, that I Loved you.

Will I ever see you again? My soul tells me you'll pray opposite of me.

You hate me; and I deserve it. But I'm crazy; and you crazy too.

So this is death-row. You ain't leaving; you belong to me.

Set you free? For what?

So you can spread your wings? So you can grow?

Nah; [expletive] that. I'm selfish.

I'll take you to the highest tower, and imprison you there; for my enjoyment. If you could, you'd run from this.

But you can't resist.

–Kittrell.

Thanks in advance for any and all Love shown to me and my work. It won't soon be forgotten; in any way, shape, form, or fashion.

Peace and Love.
