Captive Life

I live my life inside a jail, with walls unseen by all. Receding steps to bottomless depths, forever I feel I fall. The fall don't hurt its when you land, I've been told by many. But forever to fall is forever to fear, with no end in sight not any. The truth I live is hard to take, if only you knew you'd agree, I'm in disguise I hide myself, myself must hide from me. The truth however does not change, it cant be controlled like fate. But it can be denied to find comfort in lies, for a fate that's more pleasant to take.
