Caged
Locked inside her head,
unable to let her feelings out;
Screaming on the inside,
like a caged beast;
Over flowing,
rushed feelings out of control;
Waves crashing against rock,
as if yearning to escape from the sea;
Love overbearing,
hate misunderstood;
Confusion growing,
as if weeds choking out a paradise of flowers;
Soon fear of being nothing,
like uninhabitable soil that's drained of life;
World seeming dull and lifeless,
a blank sheet of paper;
She screams inside for someone to save her,
someone to care but she can't make a sound;
Silence deafening,
Loneliness piercing;
No one will save her,
pay attention to her silent pleas;
Her prison is so empty,
that her fate looks the same.
