I
Wanted to be happy
Wanted to be loved
Wanted to be held
And let go like a dove
Held in one’s hands
Embraced by one’s arms
Prized and protected
Enchanted by charms
But all I got
Was sorrowful pain
Hope that was lost
And love that was
Never meant to be
Choked with the hatred
That lived in those arms
The eyes of the snake
Engulfed by the flames
Was all that was
Waiting for me
