Little Silver Boy
little silver boy, so lost and alone,
carrying a man's weight, nowhere to call home
little silver boy, come into my arms
and I will protect you from all that would harm.
little silver boy, with hair like starfire,
eyes like the moon, voice like a lyre,
come into my arms, little lost child,
and my affections will be tender and mild.
I'll heal the scars that others have placed
upon your slight frame; the horrors you've faced!
I'll make it all better, I'll smooth your skin,
no need to fear now any harm from your kin.
little silver boy, I'll show you love
I'll come whisper affection you won't find Above
I'll hold you close, my arms wrapped 'round you tight,
and I'll speak in your mind in the darkness of night
my ebon arms will embrace you, soft and sure
as dark dreams in your head swirl and blur
do not be afraid, my little silver boy,
the secrets I tell you will bring only joy.
little silver boy, you toss and you turn,
you freeze in your sleep but the things you dream burn
you're alive with fire, frozen and dead,
as the dark things I've told you whir in your head.
look in the mirror, see your own eyes,
see reflected back at you the thing you despise.
embrace your nightmares, given with love,
I've created a raven where once was a dove.
little silver boy, so lost and alone,
you've come into my arms, found your new home.
I've twisted your soul with emotional rape-
you are all mine, now. You can never escape.
