I felt terrified...
Petrified!
My fears intensified,
Then without warning
My body became too hot
Like i was being fried.
I start sweating
Frightened as a child
I fear to even wipe the sweat out.
I'm like a tout flouting my
Embarrassment,
For judgements to supersede.
From these shackles i yearn
To be freed...
I'm enslaved  by my own creed
With no hopes to witness
My salvation.
Isn't treason a serious felony?
Why then is my mind not in
Questioning?
Has it gotten to you too?
No wonder you seem helpless to
Intervene!
I'm locked in my head
It's a prison let me be...
