Beholden

The day that things changed between us

Don’t want it to stop, you know

The trade of motion demeans us

Our momentum stopped, controlled

I wish that I could spit and scream and flail for what I want mine

But it’s just more in my character to fade to black as a thought, kind

The way I cautiously need us

It hurts not to start, you know

Today I open my heart out

My pandora’s box unclothed

There are just too many articles written by ironic life

Just hold me till I can remember my vulnerable mind


How do I separate the magic moments, not to be beholden

While lately there’s been no magic moments where I have been holden

How do I separate the magic moments, not to be beholden

While lately there’s been no magic moments where I have been holden


The ray, like lightning deceives us

Illuminates a warm glow

Betray two weeks that dream us

Till second place burns, burns cold

Each spring I find myself left with the remnants of forgotten snow

I am a token, not be broken, yes, this I know

The way the taken have seen us

I am their hope, controlled

The fray of rot that seats us

Stuck behind glass pedestal

I have grown to laugh at this place I’ve been placed to find

It doesn’t suit me all much better than loneliness or lack of trying

How do I separate the magic moments, not to be beholden

While lately there’s been no magic moments where I have been holden

How do I separate the magic moments, not to be beholden

While lately there’s been no magic moments where I have been holden
