[hometext] => (This is sad, it's about being treated like a possession by other men)
[bodytext] => Love me, my eyes have turned to stone for you. Cold towards the many that crave me. I have given myself to you While distastefully eyeing the others with disgust, almost as if to taunt them "You can't have me! You can't have me!" and I gasp, my heart clutched, my stone eyes shattering like glass it's a modern day rape. They try to take me, when I don't belong to them. My soul bleeds in protest. A scream escapes my lips. I can't escape, I am drunk and my wrists are bound with rope. I cry out, "Unclench your fist, so tightly strung around my heart!" I have lain in poison, in suffocation to remain within your reach, your touch, lover. but these men with their excuses of lust, of dominance tear me apart before you like nothing but a photo, worn away with time can't you see my eyes? Hand in hand, I still walk with you.
