Twisted
theNAME
As you twist my words again
The light within them dies
New lies are born, raised and nursed
With the greatest care
It’s the foundation of your world
Where from you build your walls
A castle with you as its king
And only fools to serve
It seems I derived from you though
In honesty we can’t be
You won’t hear me out
If I dare to speak of your faults
As an act of kindness
To help us reconnect
Again
If you ever heard my voice
And saw me as your child
It was that time when you said wisdom
Comes with the years
Despite the efforts I have made
You’ll always have the chance
To free yourself from pride and heal
The damage you have done
It seems I derived from you though
In honesty we can’t be
You won’t hear me out
If I dare to speak of your faults
As an act of kindness
To help us reconnect
Again
As you twist
My words again
The light
Within them
Dies
