Poems
Jan 2019
Trapped
Like a mime in a glass box
I’m trapped by my own mind
I wake up and paint my face on
I draw on my smile
But if you only walked a mile
I'm in pain but that’s ok
The rest of the world doesn’t seem to mind
That I'm running out of time
That I'm actively losing my mind
That I'm drowning in an ocean of emotions
That I've been bearing the weight of the world so long that I have broken bones
That I have a broken back and broken shoulders
That the weight of my fear crushes my soul like a boulder
But that’s ok I'll just keep marching on like a good little soldier
