Letting your mind play
those old games.
Another trick on you
comes together,
constantly assailing the walls
of your sanity.
Never knew that you would do
what you
did in that
single moment.
Through all the things you had
to choose,
we became irrelevant.
No time left for us to
talk about it.
You reach for
a savior,
never even thought about it.
Castrating
your rules
doesn’t make you free,
just does the same thing
they do to me.
Answers to your questions
always lie
in the same place
they always did.
Emancipation
takes flight,
only if you
don’t constrain it.
Telling yourself one thing
when you clearly believe
another,
is an awful trick
for you
to play
on you.
This is why
some of us
seek asylum.
Separating out
from this abuse
is tough to do
from the inside.
