Jan 2011
The strength of her words radiates on the cage walls
the bars burn red hot, burning my hands as I try to escape
As her voice grows colder, the walls close in
pressing against the red hot bars my own screaming the only thing I can hear
-I stay silent-

My face is held up by steel, movement will break the dam (my greatest achievement)

It's my fault I'm here trapped in this cage with red hot bars, from which I shall never be freed.

I've stopped trying to ask for help when her words make the bars radiate with heat
hiding in silence I wait to meet the light until the end of this fight
