Message of truth



Sending a message that will never be sent,
Left by faded brittle crushed roses,
Guardians bid me to fall and repent,
Heartless memory decomposes,
Uncertainty clouds my source,
It releases into a world of doubt,
They take me and push their force,
No wonder I'm left here without,
I need a hero in my room, Heroic figure still unseen,
Life becomes a rotting tomb,
Followed by a solo in this scene,
A song needs to be heard in a duet,
Why do you have to be out of my reach?
I can't drop the composure and forget,
Fire meets this controlling insane leech,
Revenge I do seek within,
Innocence should not be taking lightly,
I hold to it like a safety pin,
I take a step from them slightly,
Hiding the truth I do, From them but not from you.
