Strong as RopesA Poem by Speak in SilenceLearning to swim, in the pool of life You see every reason, to grab your knife But no, its just out of reach He's climbing over your walls, they're almost breached Pray to the only thing you know true He's the only one who's helped you through But he can't save you this time Fore you're too far in the pits of hell, for all your life's crimes You see the light but can't reach it He never knew, but he will this time, you'll have to admit Arms reach far to try to touch the light But its useless, even though it shines so bright You have no fight left, you're might as well be gone You know its not even close to dawn But wait, you see the most shocking thing It's the hand with the golden promise ring Shocked, stunned you take a second look But it was true, it was the boy that the other girl took Its not possible, it can't be But its right, that was the boy you let go free You scream his name, but it seems he can't hear you Maybe you're too far down? Maybe he can't get through? Its him you thought you'd never see You think "but now he can't see me?" You shout, you yell, for hours it would seem "This can't be happening, this is what happens in my dreams" You think, you ponder "does he know I'm here?" "Of course he doesn't, his hands starting to disappear!" Just before he's gone, he looks at you straight But when you see him, that's not the boy destined in your fate That's the face of the devil, looking into your eyes You gasp at the sight, looking for him. But he's gone now, buried in the lies Cry tears of blood, for you've got many years ahead There will never be a way out, even if you fled He will always haunt you, even in your dreams Fore you've been ripped apart, even at the seams Just when you think its over, he comes back with a new plan Fore he's clever and wise, he can do more than any man He will slowly crush your soul and shatter your hopes Because he knows he has you tried down with lies as strong as ropes © 2012 Speak in SilenceAuthor's Note
