(l)awful need

heavy scented floral arraignments, the noose falls on the jury, hung in my jaw, with the rest of the judgemental emotions not able to pass

is it warranted, these false warrants issued for issues of despondency

handcuff me to the headboard, lock me up, knowing your heart is the key, weigh me down with stones in my pocket, a locket with your vaguely disapproving eyes and smile

i wish you accepted my verdict of loving you, this sentence of blind affection that lasts a lifetime, but i am just another member of the justice blinded chain gang, destined to hard labors of need, serving under your heel
