You
  seem to be lurking in the shadows of which are too dark for me to see, but I know
  you’re there,
Clutch
  my heart in your hands just to watch me writhe and wince at
The
  pain it is causing me, sick pleasure ringing in your ears like the
Strings
  of the most beautiful violin, being hacked from their bridge
That
  I am faltering on, slowly heavily close my eyes, beginning to lose
Control
  of my understanding that you are the one sawing away at the strings that enrapture

Me

This piece emerged from my thoughts during a time when I realized I didn't have to listen to what other peopel told me and wanted me to be, so now that I look back, these are the feelings I was going through at a certain time.
