Still Trapped by One
In silence, I watch you work the crowd
Make them all love you, completely enthralled
How many do you tell what lurks beneath
Your breezy facade of shallow lies?
In darkness, I watch as another fall prey
To the hopes and dreams your words convey
I laugh as I think of the sadistic dance
You hide behind insincere romance.
In sadness, I watch as your nightmare spell
Leads another down the path I know so well
Helpless as I watch you play your game
Another, as I, won't ever be the same
In despair, I watch as you run one more
Slamming shut behind any possible door
That could set you free of your inner rage
And other dark things that you keep in that cage.
Like me.
