A darkening pulse beating rapidly-
As my blood runs cold-so cold
And yet the heat returns to my lifeless body
Denying me of all that I beg for
Life-freedom-and most of all death
Even my plea for numbness
As feeling remains in tact.
A corset of lies wrapped around me
Now pulling tightly against me
--Tighter-
It’s getting hard to breathe
And I glance behind me
Only to find you pulling the strings.
Left out in the cold--
--An open book for the taking
And you read through the pages of my life
--Can't stop you this time--I can't even stop myself
As you throw me back into your closet
--Locking me away till you choose to look through my once more.
-Surrendering the little freedom I have-
-Had
I forfeit to your demands
A silent pleading resigns in my throat
--Words of hatred at my tongue
As I bite down-
I can’t face the words
So I throw them away
Into the gutter in which I belong.
Your hand--an ice cube down my back
--Can't bear your touch any longer
As you turn my heart to ice.
A broken cry lingers here
Within my forgotten memories
--My dreams
Till the wind carries it away
Back into the past-where it belongs.
(Yet it still haunts me..)
I build a plastic world around myself
And stare back with empty eyes
--Detached-
I remain emotionless
--I can’t let myself do this for you
And I surrender myself to the unforgiving waves
Don’t let me forget.
(I’ll never forget.)
