Handcuffed in place
To the poles of my mind
The screeching and wailing
of the thoughts inside
The pounding ache as
The tensions building
It's like it's trying to
Crush my skull in
Bounce up and down
To release the energy
Scratch my hands
To release the anxiety
Waiting for someone to notice
My head in my hands
But when they ask
I just nod I'm fine
