My Bonds

by Ezra   Aug 5, 2014


I'm lost and confused
I don't know what to do
I thought I knew what to do
I thought so many things
Knowing just what to do
But then it comes

(Her) call...
(Her) voice...
(Her) words...

Suddenly I can't see...
Suddenly I can't speak...
Suddenly I can't feel...

My emotions have backlash...
My thoughts have clashed...
My mind has turned to ash...

I pretended to know what to do
I envisioned so many words to say, to shot, to scream
I failed to see...

My love...
My heart...
My bond...

To the one who stole it all...

I give and give ...
But (She) never seems to care
(She) takes and takes and takes some more

I love (Her) so...
I love (Her) so...
But (She) is the only one to make me cry

None other has succeeded
Innless their words tie with (Her)

My mind trembles...
My heart shudders...
My chest stutters...

And still I pray...
Maybe this time?
Maybe, maybe, this time (She)'ll see
But (She) never dose

I've cried for (Her) since I knew how...
I spilt my tears, praying and praying...
Just maybe, maybe, today is the day...
But it never is that day.

I fear I hold onto a childish wish... a childish dream

That someday (She)'ll see,
But (She) never does.
I fear (She)'ll never will

Behind those bars and glass (She)'s so sorry
(She) promise to make it right when (She) gets out
(She) always does
But (She) never does

My heart breaks...
My mind shakes...
My world blackens...
And I begin to faint...

But then that woman's words come into play

She's always been there...
She's always speaking, always trying...
My greatest fear is that I've become just like (Her)

Then that woman comes...
Then that woman smiles...
Then that woman speaks...

My chest swells...
My heart fills...
My mind swirls...
My world spins...

And I smile

My tears dry
My sobs subside
My darkness brightens

And I smile

She believes I'm special...
She believes I'm important...
She believes in me...

And I smile

She believes in my existence...
She dried my tears...
She held me close...
She made me laugh...
She made me smile...
She spook to me...
She opened my eyes...
She takes her time with me...

(She) ignored my existence...
(She) made me cry...
(She) pushed me away...
(She) made me sigh...
(She) turned off the lights...
(She) turned away...
(She) walks away...
(She) made the darkness come...

She turned on the lights...
She held me close...
She made me laugh...
She opened my eyes...

My chest swells...
My heart fills...
My mind swirls...
My world spins...
My tears dry...
My sobs subside...
My darkness brightens...

And I smile
And I smile
And I smile

My choice is clear

Good night darkness
Good night sadness
Never again shall we meet

Hello sunlight
Hello morning star
Hello new day
Hello sunshine

I smile
I smile
I smile

I've made my choice

So don't talk
So don't glare
So don't shout

I've made my choice

Goodbye my regret
Goodbye, Goodbye...
My mother
Goodbye my mother

Hello my hope
Hello Aunty
Hello, Hello
My Aunt

I've made my choice...
