I was in love
my head swimming with visions of him
the edgs of my vision black
the rest of it blurry
i was on a broken merry-go-round
one that would continually stop
and then spin out of control
but i had a prize
and i hugged it so tightly
that everyone thought the stuffing would pop out through his eyes
my prize loved me too
he would tell me secrets
in our dark ice covered underground
where we would hold each other
just to stay alive
these nights were my joy, my passion
they didnt know
they dont understand
no one else on the merry-go-round
loved my prize
they saw how he consumed me
so i traded him for another
everyone loves my prize now
but sometimes i miss
spinning so fast
that i feel
as if
i will die
