To place a pain upon another
to place a shame upon another
to satisfy our own
to "benefit" them
this is humanity's crushing blow upon itself
I say my words of hatred and critics only perpetuating this
yet I feel justified in it
yet daily I digress from such behavior
yet I know I shall most likely never leave it
for it has a place
but o' how it corrupts our best hopes
how dare you
how dare they
take the dreams
take the desires
from another
how dare you
we build gallows for those
we build plans for your demise
for you have taken hope and broken it
if you wish to pain them
pain them in hope
pain them that have shall make there hope
yet it will be in a cost of hopes
and do this even sparingly
for the bolstering you gain is your own step up to the gallows
and if you lie in the noose
and say I mentioned to build through breaking
read to me the art of breaking and know
know you lie with lips that should be sealed
burn to one with the pains of the heart you've seared
if you lie in the noose
only tighter is shall slip
if you are in the noose you have one hope
and pray nobody decides to take that from you
like you did to them
your hope
your one hope
is to take
the hear you have broken and give yours to the restoration of it
and to do so with one goal
to heal and inspire it
so they may begin to start a hope and see it to its end
and from this you must not deviate
and you must pay your penance
you must ensure that their feet are stable
you must make their path lit
even if it takes the blood from your viens
this is your duty
this is your role
and once they are there
once they are secure
you are free but know that you crushed a hope in them
and that that may have been the hope that made them
sleep with that
