A Prisoner of Living Free

There is so much to be felt to understand the point of no return When you befriend heartache, it's best to remain civil, and stay clear from it You recognize intentions with a string of separation, lagging behind thoughts. Never knowing what to expect, i steer clear I move on, and stay clear from your path of destruction. From your inviting thoughts, only to pull me under your skin When i opened myself Poor perception of your own placed me in a piece of your reflection While you told yourself, this is who you are. Yet, you deceived me. And became who you hated most. You let go of yourself, and gave your heart away to an empty soul You sold your soul to the mirror, who deceived you for what you really are And i look ahead into the distance Numbed from all the truth. Lies have swallowed up my past. I cannot be a prisoner of living free. Although, my mind is set beyond what you have seen I cannot be held of captivity for witnessing what others remain unseen. I will not be a prisoner, all i can imagine is to be set free
