The Door

I keep you locked away behind my secret door
The only place I feel secure
Letting you out when I need to play
Or just to talk the day away

My words at times can be kind
While often they are meant to break your mind
Keeping you always unsure
Of what to expect when I open that door

Will I tell you how beautiful you are
And that I am the luckiest by far
Or that you are my dirty whore
An object for my pleasure and nothing more

I can kiss your skin so tenderly
In hopes that this it how you will remember me
I can make you feel pleasure down to your core
To make up for the other times I open that door

With rage in my eyes and no caring touch
The emotions sometimes get to be too much
For reasons that I can't quite explain
The only thing that makes it better is causing you pain

Punishing you for crimes you didn't do
I take all my anger out on you
Leaving you lying on the floor
Waiting for me to once again open that door

But you never complain or cry
Even if I give you a million reasons why
You are always there for me when I come calling
Whether I am flying high or falling

So I keep you locked away where no one knows
A place I hide but my mind often goes
Never knowing myself what will be in store
When the time comes again to open that door
