My Once, Not Future King

Once a truth, and now a lie —
why would I see a future I didn’t live?
Like Cassandra, I announced a doom
no one believed.

When blood is the truth of life,
how can you deny it?
A single word from you, my king —
wrapped me in chains.

I know I am to blame. You made that clear.
But what did you expect —
I have already been told I’m not who I am
I don’t qualify.

My heart was free; truth meant something —
if you need me, I’d be there —
but when I screamed, you chased me away.
My heart, you disobeyed.
