A Manipulated Mind

A Manipulated Mind

A Manipulated mind failed to see, 
The frozen leopard that went to work on me, 
With false dots in the eyes and a soul from a kiln 
All colours presented from black and white film 

Not on my watch do you control my sanity 
Not on my watch do you dictate the way I live.  
I accept the impact you had on me 
physically, mentally… 
natural delivery.  
Never again will you contaminate,
how I feel, and the air I breathe, 
Feel and breathe, 

Our colours darkened by your shadow of evil. 
Engraving concrete lies 
and etching relentless betrayal. 
You paralysed my mind and left a shipwreck deserted at sea, 
Never again will those waves capsize what’s left of me. 

Not on my watch do you control my sanity 
Not on my watch do you dictate the way I live.  
I accept the impact you had on me 
physically, mentally…
Revolving ptsd.  
Never again will you contaminate…
how I feel, and the air I breathe
Feel and breathe, 

Lies and deceit drip from your every pore.  
The opportunities I had were slammed with every door.  
The windows to my soul are prepared for whats to come. 
The pebbles that you throw at me and the ripples from our son. 

Never again will you contaminate 
The way I feeeeeel and the I breathe
Feel and breathe
