Trapped Within
TRAPPED WITHIN
Trapped in my own thoughts
A world of just me and my soul
Drenched in my pains and sorrows
Each morning brings enough pressure
The night comes laden with fear and horror
I am like a kitten trapped in a hollow
Here I am all day long
Drenched in my weary thoughts
My sorrow makes my bones quake
I am downtrodden and hopeless
The day brings no hope
And the night shines forth darkness
If I scream in my fainting voice
The thunder cages my voice to my chest
My body is too heavy
Even my spirit cannot lift itself
My eyes are ashamed to gaze the skies
My vision fades like dew before the sun
My hope turns into a mirage
They are all gone before me
I am like a cursed soul in wilderness
With no hope of seeing tomorrow
