All My Life

The promised call
A pacifier
Just another
Pure confection
The talk of future
The great belier
Within ovens of convection

Simply just more tethers
Meant to hold me
Simply stating how you're better
In an effort to control me
But you never counted
On my inflections
Or my inner
Resurrections
This changing of my complexions
The return
To my rejections

Standards set
But getting higher
Illusions sent
Enrapt in desire
But you can't both Stoke
And tamp my fire.
While you lay out
Your Trapwires....

Fly so free
Upon the breeze
My heart and soul
Unseized
After all my
Useless pleas
My incessant screams
Ignored and belittled
Claiming that I'm mean
Despite the thousand tears
Unseen

Playing me
Like I'm just a game
Wondering why
I've gone insane
Pitching and pulling
The plug from out the drain
But in my mind
I think I can find
A life beyond
The unkind
The irreverent blind
The future spent in binds

I can accept
My misery
I can accept
The false belief
The lies inside
of what you've tried
In an attempt
To set me free
With thoughts
Of a capture after
My release....



I'm quite capable of being miserable alone.
Quite used to feeling and being alone.
All my life I've been living in yesterday.
