~~ Entrapment ~~

Why is it terrifying to live?
Why do I cry and scream from the torments of my mind?
To feel trapped by everything,
It makes me feel blind

I have fought against my terror,
I have watched my mind awake
But without a moment’s notice I’m wrecked
Drowning in a life full of fake

I am surrounded by darkness
Nowhere to turn
To find a way out
I desperately yearn

I feel all around but there is nothing but black
So tangible
So thick
Of light there is a lack

The world keeps on spinning,
The ants don’t see my pain
I don’t have any fight left in me,
Why can’t I be sane?

As I enter the room
I stop and I stare
There is noise all around me
Yet no one is there

I feel like a muse
Trapped in a cage
On the brink of tears
Yet bursting with hidden rage

And just as I am about to give up hope and just cry
I feel something beneath my hand
I keep going feeling for I cannot spy
And then at last an empty space

Finally my freedom I will chase
I used to have an existence
I used to be free,
But now I tremble in terror
From my self-imposed prison called me!
