I can stand on my own two feet.
I cant be bought or sold in stores,
I imagine whats through those open doors.
He kept me hidden,
He kept me safe,
He did not know it was forbidden.
I was different,
I was new.
He can't see what I can do.
The sparks and flames shoot through my veins,
Like a wild horse without reins.
Next time i see him,
On a whim,
I'm frail, weak and very thin,
But I have power deep within.
From my mother and before her,
I was never certain, never sure.
Ancient history sure to repeat,
Another witch they'll never beat.
We are stronger,
For I will conjure,
My greatest strength,
I will go to any length.
I must hide for here he comes,
My heart beats like a thousand drums.
I jump to the corner and hide my head,
For he wont allow a single bed.
I am scared but it wont stop me.
I must escape.
I must get free.
He bursts in,
The air gets thin.
Hes much taller then I have ever been.
He shouts my name,
I will not say,
I will not move.
He will go insane.
He will feel the fire,
See the sparks
I will never tire.
The flames will burn,
And he will turn,
Unnatural shades of auburn.
His ashes fall to the floor in a pile
And I cant help but smile,
For I am free
I can move
I can finally make them see.
My life is much better in the pages of a fantasy.
He not real,
Or real to me,
But I feel
Hes the bad one we all need to beat.
Our angry captor
Who keeps us locked.
Our angry self
Who keeps us blocked.
From being creative and being free,
From being the me I always dreamt to be.
He keeps me silent,
He keeps me sane,
For all these ideas are in my brain.
I cant get them out
Or dare to try,
Because once I do
I will get too shy.
What if someone hate it,
What if some one cares,
These are my words
And my prayers.
let someone hear them
Let someone see
I'm becoming the me
I'm meant to be.
