Errant emotion

What errant emotion do you capture?

Where did it run away from me, 

who was trying so hard to keep it down?

You grabbed my emotions by the forelock

Is the fault mine? I was hurting and unaware

When you came for me first

I was emotional and trying not to be

And you laughed and took all the emotions 

I was trying to hide from the world

You took them, and you took me as well

And now when I'm trying to take hold of my emotions

Try to steer them in a way that i can manage

You, who took them and made them bigger and stronger, 

And made me weaker

You don't reach out to take me back

But now i come willingly

Called by the high, chilling notes of the Pied Piper

I won't tell you to stop

You're here as well

You've hurt as well

The call came for you as well

Louder. Higher. Bone-chillingly promising

And you answered

And now you're caught

Worse than me

I won't tell you to stop

You can't

I'll continue to try.
