Because of Love

Young and new to reality of world
they only see the good in a body
words of eternity caring are hurled
a figure of beauty always gaudy
the controlling hands curling far around
wicked chains holding strong on the captive
possessive words continue to surround
never any freedom for the plastic
lonely child crying in colorless room
holding onto the small cribs broken rails
hiding behind single door for the boom
left all behind to follow winding trails
 a monster waiting at end to be slew
 all from lies from a , because i love you
