The story of the runaway

She thought they were special
She thought they were different.
She thought they were happy,
She thought they were inseparable.
Yet she was deceived by what she thought.

Behind closed doors
Was another side to her life.
The side she never knew off;
Once the veils were lifted
She saw the light.

Torn apart by secrets,
By anger, by jealousy.
Her heart melted,
Sadness took over.

Ashamed by what she believed
Afraid she would be like them.
Her fight for survival
Her longing for freedom
Began that moment.

She never thought it was possible
At least not to her.
The act they put up
When anyone was near
Was almost unbelievable..
Could pass of to be real!

Yet,as she watched the show
As she played the role;
She wanted to scream.
She wanted to flee!

Her heart screamed run
But her feet said no.
She didn't know what to do,
She had no place to go.

Torn apart by secrets
All covered by lies
she watched them go by
As if everything was all right.

Her heart ached for comfort
Her knees unsteady
Her eyes filled with tears
As she tries to look around,
For some one she knows
For someone who cares.

"Why did this happen?
This must not be!
Cant they hear me?
Cant they see
The same way i see?
the same pain i feel?"

Alone and lonely
She tries not to think
About how they deceived her,
Or about how she felt.

She prays that shes dreaming
But gets knocked between the eyes
To remind her of reality
To tell her to run.

Pied piper

The young ones are calling
They long for you to play.
Come Pied piper,
Come take them away.
Yet be kind Mr.piper,
Their minds are like clay.
Please mould them right;
They break, if you do it the wrong way.

There are some that don't know you.
There are some that don't care.
Pied piper,Pied piper-
Don't let them go astray.

I did not know you were there
I had no clue where.
Pied piper, Pied piper
I was asleep when you played.

You came that one day;
You played and you played.
But Pied piper, dear sir
You left one child that day.

I ran and I ran
Tried to follow your tune.
I ran and I ran
But you never knew.

Pied piper dear sir,
I tried to find my way,
I longed to be among them
I longed to feel the same.

I waited for years
For you to take me away.
But Mr.Piper, kind sir
You never came back again.

Those children have come back
Moulded the right way.
Their moulds,though similar
Are brittle and strong.

Pied piper,pied piper
I molded mine,my way.
My mold is different,
Its taking too long;
I don't know the right temperature,
I know not the right song.

Pied piper, pied piper
I blame you not, for this.
Yet Pied piper,
I have just one wish.

It gets lonely and dark
It gets scary i must say!

Pied piper,pied piper
Please play me a tune,
A simple one would do.
Just to tell me you're there
To tell me you care.

Pied piper, pied piper
Please don't turn on me ...
Again.
