Long Time Gone

Caged and corralled, erratic, frantic one    
Driven to embody the weight of sanity    
Mind wrecks seated in the bowels of time    
     
Skins of long term pain    
Pealed off the remains of many forgottens    
Pawns of fictitious pasts    
Renditions of a weeping heartbeat    
     
Morality, a runaway gust of deceit    
Fueled by an ordeal of beliefs    
Salvaging remains of the weak-stricken    
Save me, resident of the virtual immune    
     
Opportunity of the wise, my fall from grace    
Inhibited concern wasted on the fallen    
Frustration bound, infected to the core    
A gargantuan me dwarfed forevermore    
     
Tired psychic loss, anger-ridden    
Home of the betrayed at heart    
Perpetrator of lies, buried in my demise    
A narrow conscience, one's private cell    
     
Distant memories amplify the voice of the howling    
Private nestling of mine,protect me once more    
     
If only the past had captured
The true essence of my soul    
...I could have had it all
