A Rope

A rope;
Such a simple thing
And yet my name
I hear it sing

"Come try me on"
It whispers
"Come try me on
And you will see"

"I will hold you
Oh so tight
Just take A hold
I can bring you the light

I'll wrap around
To keep you warm
Twisting and turning
I'll change your form

You look so pale
I'll turn you blue
Just take a hold
I'll carry you through

You'll look like an angel
Hanging in the air
People will come
To admire you there

No worries love
Do not fear
Sooner or later
They'll find you here

That's right child
Come closer I say
I promise dearest
To take you away

No more hurt
No more pain
Hurry now
It's beginning to rain

That's right
There you go
Tie me tighter
Just so you know

Now love
On the count of three
Take your strength
Step away from me

So I did.

A rope;
Such a simple thing
I wish I had never
Heard it sing
