Reward

This is what it is like? 
Is this my reward? 
What I deserve. 

Devoted and hard working 
Back is breaking 
Cage me 
Wrestle 
Tug and tie this bow we have held together 
All this time 

Cut you 
Lose you 
Lose this sight 
Lose these thoughts 
You're nothing but a hinderance to me 

Wish you weren't here 
Wish you weren't born 
Wish you weren't mine 
In my life 

Get gone and lose this lifeline 
That I call you mine
