These walls around me hold
my emotions in check
because you unleash them
and then you hold me in check
with those games you so love to play
with my heart
this hold on my heart
has become tiresome
and i am weary
of you pulling on the reins
to bring me down
don't you realize that you hurt me
and that i cower
behind my glowing silver eyes
that you used to love
and that i cry every night...
because i miss you?
but i've come to realize taht
i am alone if i want to be,
and you don't hold me
anymore.
