Picture Perfect (www.ravensrants.com) What the Hell happened to me? When did I go from someone who was so mighty so strong and fade into the person I am today? I used to know how to smile for God's sake but somehow I forgot and I haven't remembered for some time now.. The simple things that once brought me joyhave all been turned into guilty pleasures and all the memories that made me smile are now too faded to enjoyI've gone from being a person whole and complete to being someone trapped within his own mind a prisoner of my feelings How can I run away when I don't have the heart to stand? How can I fight this when I can't rouse the energy to care You've won I'm a slave now I hope you're happy You've caged the birdand grounded him for life You conquered mescorched medestroyed me and now you have me on display like a picture just an image of what once was flat, motionless but easy to hold and ownI hope you enjoy your picture my dear I'm sure you have me in a nice frame. How much patience did it take to cage me in? It doesn't matter You've won either way It's all over You own me, place me on your shelf and point me out to your friends.It's my role now my job.I now just live to pleaseand if I broke free I would surely die So use me, trash me, trade me I don't care anymore A heart can't beat within a frame and you can't have a soul in 2-D That's just the way it is and the way it always shall be.
