Poem Title:
Poem
I'm trapped in this box, with nowhere to go There's no ventilation here, for the air to flow Walls so tight 360 degrees around me Silence and darkness so thick I can't see a thing in front of me Gasping for air, it’s hard to breathe Searching for a way out, I've got to leave With my hands placed against these walls Trying hard to find a door I can feel the walls closing in on me more and more So as the panic attack starts, I take short breaths Trying to come up with ideas But there aren't none left Attacks are coming quicker, as my mind deceive me Reminded of words from Jigga So I got to ' Breathe Easy' I got to defeat these devils my family needs me So as I fight to survive all the things that are making me mad Trapped in these walls is really making me sad I badly need to exhale, that’s no doubt Unless you've experienced claustrophobia to this degree You could never imagine what I'm talking about I'm trying hard to get out There's so much more of me that I would like to give Air is what I need to live You see........ My sign is Cancer, so like other Crabs When I step up, I get pulled back down But yet, I breathe easy, No need to stop me now So I push a little harder Trying to knock these walls down The more I push these enemies The more they try to hang around O' I get it now, It's not about my enemies and how they could hurt someone else And the more I try to stop them from hurting someone else I hurt myself So I use prayer as a weapon in this spiritual fight The harder I pray, the more I see the light These walls are starting to open wider, with ever word that I say I can see the sun shine bright, just like a summer day As I made my get away, the demons started to flee Free at last, No longer trapped with my Inner Me.
