My Jar, My Cage, My Realization

1 1 1
                                    

I'm just now realizing that my original plan is failing


I was supposed to be soaring in this sea of joy


But I'm not cause I'm just sailing


Just barely floating in this sea of misery


It's no mystery


I treated my heart like a toy


Playing make pretend


Trying to pretend that I wasn't hurting


Saying its just harmless flirting


But now in my jar that I created


I'm spilling all my lies as if we were mated


Then I pause


Waiting for my applause


My acting was spectacular


My plan was full proof


I mean I could've been tackier


But I'd already blown off the roof


But when the curtains closed


I fell out of character


Because I had realized


My original plan was failing


And my tears were trailing


My walls had been breached my jar was within your reach


You grabbed me but not all that gently


Then dropped the glass as if to shatter me


The cuts missed me so narrowly


That now I can see


Make since


Probably not cause its not like cents


You can't count the shards and understand me


You broke my amour


But am I still to amor?


You whisper sweet nothings to calm me


And for some strange reason it's calming


Its funny I've been in line for so long


Waiting for loves call that imitations grew strong


Crushing and believing for so long I'd forgotten loves voice


So now that I could be close I'm stuck with this choice


Believe or be deceived


In what has eluded me


Because now that I have my jar fixed


I don't have to see


What's ahead of me?


I'm protected in these walls that I call my best friend


But my walls don't talk back


So I pray that this don't end


Please don't cause me to backtrack


I'm scared yes


But not all that distressed


I trust you


So I'm taking a step out of this jar


Recreating my plan


Just don't shatter me
