Those times i felt afraid
Escape was the only way to go
I wanted to run away
but i was locked up in prison  and needed a prison break
I wasn't Michael Scoffield so i had no perfect plan to run away from this prison that had taken away my peace .
This prison was within me.
It was in my mind
Like a computer program that had been installed and i had no password to it and so it was a hard one to decrypt
I was marooned in a lost place
Caught up in a dome and the air i breathed never changed
This air smelt fresh but no like before i lost my mind
I was running paranoid
I needed a savior but no one would come no matter how hard i screamed
I felt my body getting weak like i had inhaled poison to my lungs and it went straight to my brain
The pain was deep and hurt like cancer
I had no heroic acts and so i had to endure
I had to drop to the ground, crawl on broken glass and let the pain absorb me
Till one morning i rode a missile right to it and broke it down and the sky of misery soon fell down
I could see the sun and i had finally moved on
The fear of loss is terrible but i'm glad i finally conquered it.
Moving on is always hard because there will always be that one thing you look at and remind you of the good glorious days.However, we had to learn how to lose in order to grow and that's how i conquered my fear
