set me free
let me go
I don’t need you anymore
I can fall apart all on my
own

constitutional compromise
meets perfumed flavored alibis
on the corner of
I’ve been through this ****-
before

where all the wounds I healed
you’ve opened
every time I bleed
you numb
and all the words are left
unspoken
`cause every time I reach
you’re gone

condescending little lies
tore the mountain from its rise
so long to build
such a swift decline

dredging through the brevity
grain of sand in an open sea
I’d swallow, but I can-
hardly breathe

all the life I once
possessed
sheathed by the
acquiesce
we were on our way
and now I find…

that all the wounds I healed
you’ve opened
every time I bleed
you numb
all the promises prove
token-ed
`cause every time I reach
you’re gone

set me free
let me go
I don’t need you anymore
I can fall apart all on my
own

This reminded me of times my children tried to pull them selves from my grip. Those moments they tore themselves from me and the final pull toppled me. When it was over, they immediately embraced me and would not let go.

Nice

un-manifested, unoccupied, all they own,,,,, twisted tarnished lies.

A very good write man...

I am still hearing you talk this one, while I'm reading..As always, a pleasure reading your writes kc..

this is actually my look at (or answer to) people who seem to jump from destructive relationship to destructive relationship. always ending up in the same relationship, even though the names have changed.
we all know them and if we don’t, perhaps we are ‘them'.

thank you for gracing the thread...

Very nice write K- and I might resemble this from time to time. It certainly hits home for many I'm sure.

Very nice write

Nicely done :-)

p....thank you

mig...

soufie... and thank you too

Wonderful imagery KC! Love the chorus with the talk of healed wounds. If you're not a already musician you might want to explore the recording and production possibilities in modern computer systems - easy than you might think.

Keep letting that art flow!

i think we all have our times when we don’t need much help falling apart, though it might be nice when we pick up the pieces...

thank you ladies...
