Curled up into a ball in the corner of the room, Surrounded with nothing but bleak walls and the echoes of my breathe, Staring out from behind the bars as I ignore the flickering light, Hoping that a moment would come I could finally taste the freedom.
I couldn't remember how I got in this prison, But the counts of my failed escapes are scarred on my body, Every whisper is my shout, every tears are my untold wishes, And every tick of the clock madness is feasting my mind.
Every move I make synchronizes with the sound of my chain, Reminding me that my steps are counted as the walls around me, Reaching out the bars, struggling to pass through them, Yet all my endevours always go in vain.
The ghost of courage remains unseen and unheard, Eyes on the laughing bars while I'm slowly shrinking, As every strength fades into oblivion, this place turns into something worse, For without a single sanity ever survived in a solitary confinement.
I am words left unspoken, unwillingly trapped in this place, I am ashamed of how will I sound like to their ears, Will I be accepted? Will I be rejected? Will I be a curse or a blessing to the world?
I always try to blame others but it's me who trapped myself within these walls, With no possible escapes I am willing to discover, Loneliness is hunting me, holding the bow and arrow of despair, But why? I'm just a voice longing to be heard.
