TRAPPED

by jay-13

There are wings Trapped beneath My fragile skin There are stars Trapped beneath My blue-green eyes There are demons Trapped beneath My light hair There are forests Trapped beneath My rib cage There are supernovas Trapped beneath My fingertips There are all these Wild, wonderful, beautiful Things trapped within me But instead, All that comes out is Ugly, awful, hideous Destruction I wish you could See my stars and forests I wish we could explore them I wish that I could Show someone my wings And fly to the supernovas That resides in my fingertips I want to show All these stunning things But they are Trapped Just like me

Notes

The demons are not wonderful or beautiful. They are monstrous, treacherous and vile. I wish to let them out so they are not trapped within me any longer but I could never let them out for fear they'd hurt someone else. I suppose some things are meant to be trapped.
