Trapped in the tough cage of emotion
Wallowing deep in the quag of the notion
Of a past that clings to the shoes of my esteem
Something that troubles for she hasn't left him
Like she did me at a time I thought forever a joke
Of a distance we were bound to reach if we maintained the walk
I wallow in the violent rivers springing from inside
Spilling blood of unrequited passion which I can't hide
A passion that corrodes the weak walls of my heart
Each time I realise she lied right from the start
Struggling to break the heavy slabs of desire
Regretting the moment I blinked and landed in fire
