Ties That Bind
She betrayed him with her lies but he decided not
to tell
He'd always seen it in her eyes, but couldn't break
her subtle spell
He was hypnotized by thoughts of love that kept him
still & in a trance
She lived in his mind consuming thoughts so he never
really had a chance
They danced all night into the morning indulging in more
than you'd imagine
Imagine two souls stuck together addicted to each other
like a habit
As fate would have it, they were crossed in the stars so it
was never meant to be
She bound him to her with wicked acts & decided to never
let him free
This is a cautionary tale of ties that bind on a deeper level
than vows & rings
Be careful of whom you attach cords for they're hard to break
nothing like thread or silly string
