Cold shelter
bold shoulder
make believe
cover your feelings
that much bolder
sift through time
you are the beholder
wallow in freedom
you get nothing but older
let it go
in nine
time flew out the heart’s window
like a dove
it’s yours
and mine
love gone cold
revenge is so bitter
and sweet
below not above
you have just been
told to keep
hurting yourself
playing insane
games
everything remains
the same
nothing changed
in name
the mind tricked you
feelings don’t
helping others
approval
perceived reality
won’t
follow you
around
pain
happiness
lost but not
found
and
to think…
you didn’t believe it’d
amount to much
when
you decided
it was smart
standing
your
ground
