Taking what is not theirs

The Leech

Going up never-ending stairs

Getting things to others are out of reach

You expect everything to be on a silver platter 

But you get none

Because you don't really matter

You are done

You take things that are dear

That are close to my heart

You are near 

You always were from the start

When will you learn 

That you defiled

Me and I have to burn

For what you dialed

What you called

You scolded

My heart you mauled

As it all unfolded

I tore holes in the wall

Drove a mile

Took a fall

Walked a while

Bound by everything 

Stuck on house arrest

Having nothing

No rest 

For the weary

This day so cold

This soul so dreary

The Leech so bold

Taking what is not theirs

The Leech

Going up never-ending stairs

Getting things to others are out of reach

Leeching the blood

Away from your heart

Your body started to flood

From the start
