Trapped

Inside my head is where all my questions lie

They twist my soul, and they boggle my mind

Wake up, I say

But my eyes remain closed

My thoughts run off into a deeper space

All of my fears I cannot face

For the pain would be too great

I already have too much hate

To wander would only be a mistake.

The darkness overcomes me

There’s no more light that I can see

So I lie here completely still, in between,

All of these walls that I have built.
