Mentally encased, 6 by 6 With hope of an escape, But only with the impending danger Of returning Leaving without resolution                 without closure Only left scarred with memories Even with a new-found 'freedom' Never actually leaving the prison. Left confined within our minds Even whilst unbound.                left in solitude to cope Left to eventually drown, Losing your last breaths, Your last hold on sanity....                Fighting a lost war So I wait, till such a time, For a release unguaranteed But will know for sure Of freedom and peace - Rufaro Kaviya

Prison Of My Mind
Mentally encased, 6 by 6 With hope of an escape, But only with the impending danger Of returning Leaving without resolution                 without closure Only left scarred with memories Even with a new-found 'freedom' Never actually leaving the prison. Left confined within our minds Even whilst unbound.                left in solitude to cope Left to eventually drown, Losing your last breaths, Your last hold on sanity....                Fighting a lost war So I wait, till such a time, For a release unguaranteed But will know for sure Of freedom and peace - Rufaro Kaviya
