The cage that
Has hold me
Will never open.
The chains around
My wrists and ankles
Tighten more.
My throat is dry
From all the
Horrific screaming.
My eyes threaten to
Close to the never
Ending nightmares.
Reality has been blurred
As the darkness
Blanketed over me.
I've given up the
Fight for freedom,
For it's only a dream.
I'm all alone here,
But I'm already
Accustomed to it.
Any pain that would
Remain is erased
And numbed from me.
Any smile or any
Optimism have
Disappeared over the years.
What is there to look
Forward to when
This cage is my life?
