From the depths of hell where i resided

After all these years i finally confided

In you, in us, our future marriage

Ive learned to cope and ditch the bandage

​

For what i saw amidst the bruises

Were the written lies that left me wounded

You nursed the cuts deeper than time

And with that id sworn you forever mine

​

To redo life and take another course

I would reject, id only pause

In this moment where i see clarity

i stand before and hope youd marry me

​

Since childhood and birth

I've had troubles to converse

Id lose my hope from day to week

But now I've learned how to finally speak

​

They beat the different and the strange

They tortured all that made me sane

But i kept trying in expense of vain

I never wanted to be the same

​

To accept what is broken and to see what is right

I get confused by the door and the light

One of them says that i should peer

But the other says not to fear

But alas the issues i sit right here

And by my own i draw a tear

​

You came to sit beside me

​

Why do you cry, what troubles you my love?

The weeps fall heavy, no sound of a dove

Thats ok, you can stay, just promise me

Dont make me pay.

​

Ive had problems i couldnt overcome

At the moment i couldnt express some

You pried the mask thatd covered my face

But it had fused, it lost all grace

​

But here we sit, among the shit

People would laugh and some would kick

But still we held eachother close

Ecstacy. A handsome dose

​

From the day you sat next to mine

Anxiety swarmed but that was fine

For whenever it would be too much

You reach my hand, to which youd clutch

​

From that day forth, i saw myself grow

From the damaged cone, to the broken grove

Had it not been for your protective shelter

That youd provide from this cruel spectre

He, it, the awful creature

Id be nought but a lonely picture

​

The troubles were gone, but didnt stop there though,

For when i grew i saw behind you

A deceitful shadow above your head

Filling your thoughts with nought but dread

I try my best, i say i wont go

But the voices stayed loud,

The truth unshown

​

So by this note, i try my last bet

I stand on this knee,

where my eyes would show fret

I take my breath, and rehearse my line

And finally I ask, will you be mine.
