A Cry to be Me

I am not the who, that you want me to be
A servant to your whims and decree

Dreams and desires, that express who I am
Radiate growth, while you�re stuck in the sand

Hope dumped me here, awaiting change to take place
To no avail, hollow promises would erase

To bolt from this pit, I yearn to start anew
But I concede, it�s now to late to leave you

Love and hate entwined, to create an intricate web
One more chances spin, to ensure freedom�s ebb

Exhausted, I submit, faced with a life fully known
my dreams, worshipped with tears, turn to stone

I wrote this after talking to a friend that was really going through a tough time. I can relate, it�s terribly frustrating. When I feel this way it is a comfort to realize that I'm not alone.
