Of Master Time
May 11, 2009
Once upon a time
I lived
My soul was strong and I felt the meaning of it
I was feral inside and I knew the feeling of it
Long before I knew the dealing of it
But that was once upon a time
I was young then
So who could blame me
For not seeing the thorns on the rose
I was young then
And though it shames me
I trusted others and saw no foes
I was young then
But still they tamed me
My spirit broken without whips and blows
I am young no longer
With life they maimed me
The quiet voice that no one knows
