Out of Bounds

Are your dreams out of bounds?
out of reach
Are you affected by todays nouns?
Do minipulations screech?

Are you deaf to the sounds?
stripped of sight?
Crippeld from all the frowns?
because you can't see light

Do you wear a thorn crown?
taste your own blood?
Can't make sense from what you found
perhaps drowning in a flood

Are you trying to make a square round?
walking in the wrong direction?
Walking unfimaliar ground?
disturbed by your own reflection?

Do you carry your past by the mounds?
struggling to set it free
Survive the fall downs?
Thought you had it down to a T?

Is your future out of bounds?
Well, the answer is in you
Are you going to collect by the pounds?
or wonder about without a clue?
