You said you’d never go,

And then you went away.

You said you loved me so,

Until that day.

You thought me strong,

But you were wrong.

My mind’s far to weak,

To hold this peak.

You carry me home,

Then leave me alone.

Free to wonder,

But also to ponder.

This is not my life,

It’s not this way.

Take away the knife,

But don’t stay.

You tell me things

my mother does

but nothing that she

ever was.

I wish I had,

A way to begin.

I wish I had,

A new end.

My wings are broken,

the door not open.

My wings are bent,

My time is spent.

Erase the pain,

Erase the shame.

Of having to choose,

Making one of you loose.

My soul is colder.

I have grown older.

Who can i call,

To catch me when I fall?

I never wanted this.

It's something I would rather miss.

You think I'm fine,

But I draw the line.

The future is a mystery,

That no one can forsee,

Someone free me,

Then let me be.

I need somewhere to run,

This pain has just begun.

Hold me tight,

Into the night.

I thought I knew you,

But then the wind blew.

I know you aren't the same,

I know what you became.

You don't have to hide.

I've already taken that ride.

I found the reason why,

Though it's not a simple sigh.

I've been alive,

I've been deprived.

I've had grievances,

Near Life Experiences.
