Trapped in a Rhyme

My little box of empty dreams is filling up too fast

The more I put away for later

the less this feeling lasts

 

My story is but naught at all

from the world so swift

I collapse into the fall

searching for that upper-lift

 

I wish I knew the color-scheme for a tale of gold

You think the answer wouldn’t be

quite so very bold

 

My eye will twitch as I swallow down

the pills that stifle me

I don’t make a sound

but I’ve yet to be let free
