Perfect Little Soldier.


Go ahead

Cut me off

then ask me,

why I dont speak up.

I learned my lesson

It's not my voice you want.

It's my obedience.

So I'll just shut up.

Follow your lead.

Without a word.

Go ahead, push me further.

I won't tell you if it hurts.

Perfect little soldier.

With it's mouth sewn shut.

My heart is growing colder.

All I wanted was love.

What I got was a mission

Just make you proud.

I love making you smile.

Even if I bleed out.

Just your typical geek. If you care to look deeper though...You can see the layers I have created. The worlds I call my own live in my imagination. Creating riddles and poems and lives and characters to become and get lost in. No one knows me, or at least the me behind the blinds. PLEASE COMMENT instagram=tamingofseawolves
