Muted by the silence that I chose
Paralyzed by the fear of acting for myself
Trapped in a cage of my creation
I die in every way I try to live
Pain made me numb
Being numb renders my emotions absent
Like a dog patiently waiting for his owner that died
Like a child without a home
Like a cigarette lit but not smoked
Like a star who's light could never reach our eyes
I feel like all these things
Sad, lonely, pointless and invisible
Like I've always been.
Like I'll always be.
