Absolution

Lust... It touched me at an early age,
I was a prisoner and in the cage.

A helpful hand was escaping in fog,
I called his name but it was gone.

There... they came with their head,
I went pale and was all red.

'Let me go, I want to go', I screamed,
But it was the light of darkness that gleamed.

'Hold her tight. I want it right',
My tears rolled down and lips were tight.

No one came out; 'come out' I plead,
see I am in shackles, get me freed.

Look... whose there? It's the one I know,
Come please, and like always let my life glow.

Shameless made me ashamed,
The moment was all tamed.

Myriads of emotions took hold of me,
It's all over, may be.

But see, I am left alone,
My cage open and all gone

As I got wings I flew high to the sun,
Like Icarus, I too was burnt

'Go, You have nothing, you little lad'
said those folks, all white clad

But that was not all I had,
The future was harsh and all bad

You can't feel the pain in which I live,
But to you, absolution is all I can give.
