Last Escape

once lost in the addictive grunge sway
of sensually gyrating bronze bodies
but it wasn't reality

twice tasted the tempestuous lips of
forbidden love that sears the soul
but it could never work

though when came this doppleganger sister
and the chance to trade my life for lies
that love was right and true

diving, I knew:

thinking of Dawn's hopeful face
I left, a broken person
but I left a better place
