The stuff you told me as a child. You said they where all true. I trusted you because you were my world. Little did I know there was a greater world beyond you.
The cage you kept me in...
I know you held me back. Scared of the world and what was bad.
You kept me warm and fed. Gave me dolls and a bed. A good life. A education, a opportunity. Love and a home. What did you do wrong. Oh nothing wrong. No, no, no. Don't think that.
You kept me alive. Told me stories, even though they where lies, of true love and how no one really dies. Of fairies and princes on white horses. A world where we could be anything and everything all at the same time. You slay the dragon for me. Said we would go down in history. The world of imagine was nothing at all and that disappeared when I realised and caught its flaw.
I know you love me. I'm a gift. A gift from heaven above. A gift from god and all you ever gave was love.
The cage you kept me was padded too. Didn't want for me what happened to you. Protect me like a glass doll and the too trusting childish heart from my own mistakes and failures.
Your beliefs and prejudice was strong. Never told me them straight out, but you actions are a reflection of where they where at. You gave me morals and told me rules and rarely did I ever break that. I never questioned, and never abused the little leniency you gave me. But as I got older and started to grow up you restricted me more and I had enough. I wanted freedom. I wanted something more. I was sorry and I told you I respected and loved you so, but I wanted to broaden my horizons and take a leap of faith, just a to discover what was out their. I started to wake up, getting a conscious and discovering who I was. Inside my heart. What was I really like? That glimpse of what I could be spark the curiosity inside of me.
