Not Welcome

CAGED! my tiny heart banging on the ribs,
72 beats a minute, to be free, to be known and to be felt.
Unrest in eyes, tears of anguish that flooded have dried
and a lone tear of blood took its place.
Even the death has abandoned,
banishing this half rotten soul. 
till it is fully rot or fully pure,
is welcome neither in hell nor in heaven.
