On fictional characters
My lovers all are made of dreams and lies
Grim, beautiful companions of this kind
We walk the dull gray streets and airless skies
Of a repressively depressing mind
Displayed in words of empty flesh and yet
We were not wrought here for your enjoyment
Phantasmagorian shadows beset
By those who would forsake disappointment
Ghosts, thematically over-dramatic
Histories shift and change with each retell
Through iterations madly erratic
Warm blood and lettered script together dwell
My soul will swear one single fact to you
Inside the story everything is true
