The taste in your mouth as you hold back tears The secrets ringing in your ears Body aching of pain Mind aching of fear ~ First forced into silence Forced into a game Trained into shyness Trained to feel shame First he locked me out of his world Our once shared consciousnesses became untwirled Left me out of his mind Finding a new life and leaving me behind Second he locked me out of his presence Refusing to touch me Ignoring my essence Declining to see me Finally he locked me out of myself My thoughts were confiscated Creativity incarcerated in a small box on a high shelf Breaking me until I was fully isolated

First. . . Second. . . Finally he. . .
The taste in your mouth as you hold back tears The secrets ringing in your ears Body aching of pain Mind aching of fear ~ First forced into silence Forced into a game Trained into shyness Trained to feel shame First he locked me out of his world Our once shared consciousnesses became untwirled Left me out of his mind Finding a new life and leaving me behind Second he locked me out of his presence Refusing to touch me Ignoring my essence Declining to see me Finally he locked me out of myself My thoughts were confiscated Creativity incarcerated in a small box on a high shelf Breaking me until I was fully isolated
