You Are Sold

A moment in time…is all I covet
For me to hide…cry out my angst
But no escape route…I can ever get
I begged…only to be laughed at

Took one more look into the mirror…it shattered to pieces
Can’t recognize this face…who is she?
Have all the make up still intact…mask is jammed
Can’t get it off…skin’s now hemorrhaged
Lips colored red to fake a perfect smile
Eyes shimmering...faking radiance
All day long, everything is nothing but faking it all the way

No feelings to feel…injected to be anesthetized
No reason to believe…a walking comatose
But the pain still leaches
Keeping alive like a dead
An animated robot…genius of human brain
A human being like machine…not a human
Commands already fed
Just following instruction by instruction

Not in control, controlled instead
Told so how to feel
Being played like a fool
Can be hassled, but can’t hassle
Sit where told to
Stand the way solicited to
Speak when asked to
This is all the allowance allowed
To keep or to spend

The thoughts are loaned
Love is not part of the agenda
The time can’t be spared
Life is just a short trip needed
To complete the tasks required
For the battery can’t be recharged

Final spoken words…
To me, all it says
Hurting? Don’t care
Bleeding? Doesn’t bother
The only thing that matters
My way, or high way
As I’ve all the power
Sucked out of you, your body and soul
Welcome to my world
Where I have you by your tail
For I am the Sin
The final call is made and you are sold
