As I walked back past my curfew of imagination
thoughts hold on to me
I'm confused right from the start, gasping for air
finally I reach ecstasy.
My mothers wound open up,
an instance words are crawling around me
penetrating my mind,
I can see her eyes with tearful plea of understanding
I didn't understand why, she would stay
Phantoms knock on our door, looking to slash her freedom
to the bottom of an abyss.
I began to understand what a mother's love is
she will whether a storm, passing her by,
suicidal thoughts took a glance of me,
an tear drop on my soul,
A prelude of given, emptiness of her soul anticipate
lasting impressions of hate, towards mutilation of her trust
As wisdom came down from above, she let go of me
without thinking of the consequences.....
