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
