Is it really so true that fear can keep us trapped and imprisoned by nothing but mere thoughts? Invisible bars with such real rigidness in their stance. Within these walls I wonder, is it normal to watch another person cry and feel like it's the most intimate you can be with a person? And if so, what does that say about what I'm putting up with? You can open my legs repeatedly, but you'll never know me there; because unlike other humans I live in my heart. If you know the key to that door isn't your **** even though it fits, but it was your deepest secrets, would you dare to open me still? Should I consider the ones who answer no to be cowards? And maybe that is why I have grown to hate you. Because I stand in the bravery of authenticity but still tremble at the thought of being alone. So maybe then in actuality I hate myself too. In conclusion, I suppose I hate neither. I only hate the mirror you are that shows me who the real coward is here, and I'm sick of staring.

Mirror, Mirror

I'm trapped in a cage I created.
