Blocked

Emotionally I have hit the wall
Speeding as a bullet 
My flow was stopped sudden
Though the momentum still persists

Wriggling to break free
With arms tethered to the side
A self-created straightjacket
In this case keeps me in harm

I can see the answer ahead 
Feel the sense of freedom it brings 
But it seems so out of reach 
Fingers that cant quite touch 

The time that has passed terrifies
Years wasted in unhappiness
As if to break free is wrong-doing 
I lay here motionless, still

If I was to die tomorrow 
I would have but one regret 
That I did not push on forward 
Instead I wallowed in blocked
