I found you
Locked in a tower in a castle,
Hidden away
From life and reality,
You never knew how good
Freedom could be,
So I set myself the task,
Of setting you free
But there were these gates
That seemed to well secured,
Hard to breech
But I remained self assured,
I could open them.
So I caught your eye
And you saw me from inside,
Gazing up at you
And we exchanged a smile,
And I offered you
A way out of that tower,
I offered you a whole new different view
And you liked the idea
And so I tried to break down the gates,
Hoping to get to you
But there was nothing I could do,
For they just would not move
And so I took a step back and thought
Maybe what if it is not force that I need
but for you to acquiesce
For you to let me in,
Trapped there within your own fears,
And when I asked you to trust and let me in,
The gates started slowly opening,
And then you were free
Because you believed and trusted
And you are now free,
Because you found the self belief,
To free yourself from your own captivity
Allowing us to run free,
To seek a whole new life,
To break free,
And live long and happily,
Ever after,
And forever free.
