Inveigled
We are here once again
In this room once again
Of four, no walls
Whispering dangerous nothings once again
I'm asking you, yes you
When will you allow the voices to echo
When will you stop the hurricanes of silence
When will you dream of lasting forever
Without being caught
I forgot. That is not a dream but
It is the reality we both live
Why must you suck me into your blackhole
Why must you chain me down
By my mouth
CAn you unlock the cuffs that have
Long rusted to my dry lips
They don't get weaker
They get stronger
As I pull and I desperately pull
They turn brown
Like the whispering leaves that fall
And eventually are forgotten
And stepped on carelessly, unnoticed
And the suffocation
Comes out in stale breaths
Years have passed, weeks have passed
Maybe more, maybe less, I lost track
Because he hasn't let any of us go
-ally
