Jul 2014
you are binded
by your delicate temptations.
they chain you
leaving you lifeless.

you are binded
grabbing at only but wound stricken arms,
that are
out stretched to rescue you.

you are binded
by currents too difficult to tread.
you jumped in believing you could,
after long moments you realize you were led to this moment.
by
your temptations,
the arms meant to pull you up
and
the waters intending to push you under.
leaving you lifeless.
we are held captive by so many things,
Our own temptation,
The people we depend on who become unreliable,
And situations we believe we can resolve until we realize it is beyond our own power to control.
Life leaves us lifeless.
