You built me into an angel... You saw me flying through life.. Joan Of Arc.. Saving lives.. You put this crown on my head.. that I did not want to wear.. You made me into someone .. who was never there.. When reality took over your disillusioned state of mind.. You realized.. these visions of me were merely dreams... Now in anger you take your sword.. Cut off these wings.. The crown now cuts into my skin.. Suddenly I am free.. Nothing left.. Just years of empty dreams Now I am Free.. to be.. the no one I began.. Free to be.. Sculpted by anothers idle hand. Not excepted as I am.. Not loved.. Not respected.. Now just shredded angel wings.. on dirty tear stained floors of dreams.. Wondering how I ever got here.. And what this life means..
nicely expressed Erica. Dreams do come out this way sometimes and some of them scare the h out of you. But it was only a dream, back to reality. hugs G
very stong... a person cannot be other then who they are no matter how others try to shape them or their world.... good write
