The Binds That Tie Us

You always said you would never be able to escape me

As if I was a prison and you were tied to me in chains,

But look at you now –

You were able to break free from the shackles

You were the one that left me

Leaving your chains behind

As if someone is just supposed to

Pick up right from where you left off

You think because you left the chains behind

She will never realize where you were? 

But I have news for you that she will know too

She will see the marks on your body

That these chains you tried to escape from left behind

She will know you were here long

Because the marks I left are embedded in your skin

And she will ask you why did you not leave sooner?

Why did you stay prisoner to this love for so long?

And that is when you can tell her,

That this prison was what you called home
