That day was a memory that flickered periodically through my brain
It picked out that day time and place and put it on rewind to remind me im no longer bounded are restricted by that rope
That strangled so gracefully like a pearl necklace around my withered throat that I thought I had succeeded in letting go of what bounded my soul it showed up like a thief in the night and took my soul every ounce of my being is what it stole
I played the role so well that's why I have a story to tell
My eyes were always raining my brain brewed up monster storms that would demolish anything in its path and came and left the past
Today is now the present why does all this pain seem to last it must have been a spell a demon had to cast
That pain I held inside would run away and hide in any dark crevess in my body it could find in my brain heart and soul until it accomplished its goal
He made me think he was innocent to drive me more insane and how could I create such things in my brain like im the only one making myself this way
He lies and lies and I cried and tried my mouth would open and my words would flow so freely off the tip of my tongue with combustible explosions to say I'm done
But long and behold he is still standing whole
And so as the wrinkles gather around my eyes encrypted like a map of all the hard roads and trips i had went down showed my frown
Until that day I was blessed with grace of meeting death in the face i was at a point of wich I had to choose my place
Thoughts now was were I began my race these are now things I wish to erase neither of wich I wanted to embrace
I was now on the journey to the things that required me to make haste ask how I wish i could just cut-copy and paste
The demon that is now being shown as me is a taste that will forever be apart of me now these are all traits i tried to remain blind only to be forced to see
I was reluctant to admit that all of these things I could never forget shes unburried my scars that cut in width across my veins like a river rushing under the ground
Through every silence i heard the sound like her hair right then I knew I would be forever bound
But I'm not put in the ground finally I have been found let go of things that would blister my fingers and make them bleed like I would not succeed
Unbounded soul alive my heart still beats in defeat
