If I could I would give you one more meal of reality- But I don't think you could swallow- Or even chew on it- Your nor queen or magistrate- Your nobility is fabricated- As much as mine- The woman in you has forgiven- But the child in you has not- And I understand this- Let us not play games- Let us not play these roles- I've had enough- What rules do you abide to- The chess pieces are missing from my board- And the time has come to relinquish- The crown you wear in front- Of your false audience, you're false admirers- I know, cause I've had them too- Just take one second- Please look inside- Feel the imprisonment that you broke free from- You broke free into another one- This time though- You learn you have a new impediment- And it's not me- And it's not you- It's the loose ends you forgot to glue- It's relaxing in satin sheets- With your head still reeling into uncertainty- And the cries from a million prisoners- Still waiting to be set free- I know, cause that was me- It's up to you- Understand the scope- The power you own- The strength in each new mandate- You make for yourself- Walking up the spiral staircase- With a single Roman candle in hand- You held your own for so long- To make all the ghosts gasp and skeletons crumble- And may be some day you'll meet me- On an overcast day- And we'll understand each other- With just one look in each other's eyes- Like we did from the start-Birth sign: Libra
