The kite without strings
When a desire is found
the open space becomes cramped
finding something else fades in its place
you feel yourself fall apart.
*
When Caught in a web of lies to protect yourself
the pain always seeps through the gaps
battling your heart to hold back the tears
you silence fear once more.
*
When words become memories
the clock doesn't pause for pleasure
gripping your chest to lock them inside
you stare at desperation.
*
When yesterday's breath is harder tomorrow
the vital ingredient has been taken
shadowing the key for freedom
you see clearly once blinded.
*
When reaching to find flight
the facts don't tempt fate alone
belief in knowing your soul will guide you
you realise, only you, can find your answers.
