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
