A jest! I say
And wonder in awe
As thoughts calmly play
In your words’ sharp claw
Bound by my words
My soul in chains,
Passing through a gorge
Without a sight of a drain.
Overflowing expectations,
All from a simple jest.
Dancing without question,
What a difficult test!
Trickery!
This is trickery I claim…
But…
Bound by my words
My soul still in chains…
Trickery! Trickery!
This is such a painful jest!
I shall dance to your tune,
Trickery!
Bound by my words…
I shall dance…
Until my chains are no more.
