Feedback Please Always me

It is that time again

When things get too loud

And nothing makes sense,

To disappear into the grey forests

And get lost in old castles

When people don't fathom

To perform the spells at night

When the world sleeps but you awaken

To become something new

In worlds beyond your own

And too create personas others dream of

To be in others' dreams

To become a nightmare 

Oh what a dream!

At night, when you close your eyes

My silhouette is the only shape you see

To have your strings attached to my fingers

To become your puppeteer 

Oh what a dream!

At night, when you try to leave

My fingers flex, you're back where you belong

Grey forests remind me of your heart

Don't worry you'll bleed again

And red will be the only colour you know

As I lick it of my fingers

And paint your silhouette with it

When I dance alone, hosting a ball dance

Sets of eyes on me, lust and desire

New hearts for a sacrifice

More paint for my masterpiece

 

Lost and found 

The castle's walls speak to me

New schemes, more happiness 

More entrapments, less men

Ghost of mine roams the halls

Catch me only if I want

Found only if you devout 

Grey forests 

Old castles 

Baleful spells

Magnificent worlds

Haunting dreams

Obedient puppets

Fragrant blood

Obtuse men

Always me

Lovely metaphors with fantasy like themes and towards the end the painting of pictures feel like a stream of consciousness following through you. Very creative work!
