Guardo todo en los confines de mi propia
Mind
Because that is where I feel safest
Even though it’s all just my demons in these torturous
Cages
I think it’s best that I keep my thoughts to myself
Place them on the dusty top shelf
But I don’t even follow my own rules
They don't teach this kind of love in preschool
Be nice
Think right
Go to sleep at
Night
I dream of a fantasy land where I rule
And it’s only me
It belongs to the people I torture by just standing too close
And I wait until it snows in my cage
It covers everything from my nose to my toes
I hide from the demons
They taunt me because I will always love you
So in that moment I chose
I love you more than myself
And I'd do anything to get you out of your cages
You're the one I hold close like my blankets when I sob
And I keep on till my eyes throb
I see the colors
And I think of what You, Henna, and Elizabeth Grant did for me
It’s so compromising
To the people I
Nurture in my caged heart
I’m so indecisive
But I refused to be caged in
I want to be all the places you've been
That’s why society looks at people like me and shuts us out
But you know what I'm all about
You said to let it out of these cages
I just want a new place to begin
In
Please not on Earth
Maybe a place where I can talk to people who've felt how it feels to be caged in away from love like this
And they won’t look at my unsound mind and me
Don't judge it
I've had enough of it
I keep my mind games in this tiny necklace
I can see a place of purple skies when I go at night
And the animals in cages with closed eyes like someone just sang a lullaby
The closed flower
Because they're sleeping
A little girl in white weeping
Lock it up
“You’ve been going on about my mind
But what about your heart?”
You mean that crippled
Black stone caged in my chest?
Oh no
It’s broken and fallen
I look to my love and fall in love again
He is leaning on a cane
And leaning against the window pain with the rays of the moon making him glow like a beautiful burning beacon of light
Time has passed in a frenzy
And I'm ready to go from this cage
I believe in the country we will never be
But it's dead just like my love and me
But I’ll keep looking for the changes
Because we were all kept in
Jaulas
