Ropes (Remove filter)
Beaten By The Belle
Of a sudden I see stars
I can barely utter a vowel
I'm down on bended knee
Trainer threw in the towel
That's what Bertha did to me
Her beauty rained right hooks
Love peppering me with jabs
Knocked out cold by her looks
She didn't pull her punches
Her uppercuts thrown at will
She trapped me on the ropes
Bertha's big punches can kill
They carried me...

Ropes
Ropes
frayed and
weathered
after
a life time
of keeping
my soul
safe
through
this
life

It's All in the Ropes
It's all in the ropes;
Some people are caught in endless games of tug of war,
Pulling,
Falling,
Until one lets go or they reach an endless breakable tension.
Others are anchored somewhere high,
Hard to break,
Hard to climb.
Whether you climb just a few feet,
Or to the top,
You will always fall.
And yet your rope is different from the rest,
Attached to nothingnes...
