Ribcage - My Three Wishes - Chapter 6
Split apart your ribcage,
Open up the corridor, and let me come in
Uneasiness instantly strikes through me
Let me sway away...
Let me flutter away...
Like a butterfly out of its cocoon
I'm trapped! Let me depart
Split apart your ribcage,
Unwrap me, let me go!
Believe me...reflect on me
Let me sway away...flutter away
Let us both seek the sun,
So we can grow together once more
You think everything good is gone – you’re dead wrong!
You think this is the end – think again! I’ll make you feel like you belong!
There’s a new beginning – this is not the end
Our hearts will never wither away or bend
Our faith will never be shaken
We won’t be pushed out of shape and bakin’
Split apart your ribcage,
Unwrap me, for I’m left untamed
Scrub away my filthy rage
Feeling this shame that must not be named
“Let it go! Let it go!” – easy for you to say
Oh! Maybe I’ll let it go another day
Just leave me be, so I can feed off of my dismay
I spread my wings and attempt to reach for my dreams
But, I’m such a loser…it’s not what it seems
My self-esteem is broken
My loneliness is a remorse that is unspoken
Believe me...reflect on me
Give me a chance…to experience cloud seven’s ecstasy
Trust me…I know why I’m here, stranded in the middle of the wild, treacherous sea
The treacherous sea describes the way I feel, churning with hardly any dignity
Don’t fed me another spoonful of agony
I’ll spit it out in envy…in displeasure…
Let me see what’s in store in the future, promising amity
My sentiments will be as unpredictable as weather
Resurrect the delight, crawling in my veins and make me someone better
Someone who deserves praise and someone who is mature
If I can have three wishes, they would sure be:
To release me from his ribcage,
To help me be more emotionally stable,
And to boost my self-esteem?
Raped by this sensation of disbelief and lament
I am shocked that I was in captivity my whole life
Been saying that I love you lately for multiple reasons, but I will take it easy this fine, splendid day that I simply adore! ! !
Chilled to the bone; basking in shivering shame and abolishing avarice
Acknowledging what I've done in the past and learning to let it go somehow...I'll look up to God and He will gladly heal me from my injuries and be my compass 24/7 - you're my heaven
Growing fast & still learning to live with this heartache in mind
Empty as a drum - you're not filling in my gaps
What would your three wishes be?
Follow your dreams and be free!
