Prisoner in my own body Rapping against the bars of my bones Peeking between my ribs Trying to find a will to live Receiving nourishment Morning, noon, and night Minimal amount of communication In permanent solitude Isolated from the outside world My organs are my only friends In this flesh-encased prison Physically dying as the years go by Mentally dead inside Unable to form full thoughts Unable to create a dream Mind never wandering from the truth Constantly focused on liberty Willing to die for freedom from myself Always trying to escape this hell

Isolation
Prisoner in my own body Rapping against the bars of my bones Peeking between my ribs Trying to find a will to live Receiving nourishment Morning, noon, and night Minimal amount of communication In permanent solitude Isolated from the outside world My organs are my only friends In this flesh-encased prison Physically dying as the years go by Mentally dead inside Unable to form full thoughts Unable to create a dream Mind never wandering from the truth Constantly focused on liberty Willing to die for freedom from myself Always trying to escape this hell
