Locked Away
You say it is for my safety
 that you do the things you do.
 You say that it will all
 get better in time
 because a heart takes time
 to heal.
 
 But do you ever worry about 
 my sanity?
 When you take everything that
 is mine
 and lock it away?
 
 I am a prisoner who is
 trying to be saved.
 
 How can I be rescued,
 if all my hair is cut off?
 How will my prince charming
 climb to my rooftop?
 
 How will my heart ever heal
 if the only one who could
 keep it together
 is gone?
 
 You say it's for my safety
 but I was only safe with him.
 If you would have just listened,
 but now it's too late.
 
 The damage is done.
 So just keep me locked away.
 Until the day you can again
 call me sane.
