Trapped

Conquered by the truth of lies Entwined in the snares of his subtle grasp I faced him once before Bound by the shackles of his dominance A tempest of fear rages within I reach for the windows pale escape In hopes not to disturb Frozen in fear upon the concrete floor A moist and forceful confining I’m a fleeting thought, lost in the void I imagine no one will find me The beaten walls refuse my surrender All the while the doors unlocked Haunted by the echos of my screams I tell myself It’s not his fault I sense him coming behind me Colliding, my thoughts conflicted Persistent, I beg of him to stop My sanity held firmly Trapped in the hall of mirrors of his manipulation Molded into the shape of his treachery, my downfall A malignant euphoria infects my soul The violent shatter of my exit, Projected by the resounding crash My only consolation Sealed and latched I’ve fallen within the cracks Troubled by his power unyielding Wallowed within my own conclusion A life without you, I’ll continue yearning
