a mystery wrapped in a riddle inside a bitch

you take delight in my pleasure,
i take pleasure in your pain,
you made me choke on your sugar-sweet words,
until i broke free of those chains,
you chased me halfway across the world,
and i followed you a quarter-ways back,
then i watched in horror as your plans unfurled,
and the stars disappeared, and the sky turned black.
the ice bergs are melting now,
and i can't seem to find my way around,
i never used to be afraid of the dark,
or monsters under my bed, but since you happened,
it's been impossible to find my ground,
you shook my world, rocked me to the core,
and left me in the choppy waters to drown.
but you failed, see,
because while i was removing one-by-one every piece
of your being from myself,
you forgot to get rid of every bit of me,
and so i was able to find my way back;
i just followed the song.
