Caught sight of me, Sprinted towards me at full speed. Left me disoriented at impact, You knew, for you, I was the perfect catch. Pretented to mend me, While feeding me poison ever so sweetly. Lifted me up and set me firmly On a chair cemented to the ground- you were all I could see. Every now and then You illuminated my world with false light. Your stone cold hands caressed me, Created a fire only you could ignite. Through time I grew accustomed, With time came wisdom. I was able to finally open my eyes, finally got my freedom. It was unmistakeable, your malice, I saw through you like cheap sunglasses.

Cheap Sunglasses
Caught sight of me, Sprinted towards me at full speed. Left me disoriented at impact, You knew, for you, I was the perfect catch. Pretented to mend me, While feeding me poison ever so sweetly. Lifted me up and set me firmly On a chair cemented to the ground- you were all I could see. Every now and then You illuminated my world with false light. Your stone cold hands caressed me, Created a fire only you could ignite. Through time I grew accustomed, With time came wisdom. I was able to finally open my eyes, finally got my freedom. It was unmistakeable, your malice, I saw through you like cheap sunglasses.
