No Way Out

Locked behind these prison bars Hiding all these deep painful scars Alone with my heartbroken fraternity Sentenced to serve time for all eternity Daydreaming of forever breaking free Lusting for love, a heartbeat, for me Cold, this bed, this floor, this breath Without you, my love, what is left? Hiding behind lies, not guilty disguise Raining burning tears behind these eyes Forgiveness comes too little to late Handcuffed, soul starved, to die with fate The story's written, dripping down on the page Shelter me from this storm, unholy is this rage Only one way out, of body, from behind bars. Tasting the freedom released from these scars. 08/20/2014
