Confined Within
Confined Within
Every time life throws sadness my way,
I take a brick and place it in front of me.
Brick by brick I gathered and built a wall
That confines me and protects me within.
Isolated, I like to keep myself
In my own space created by me,
I am not strong enough to break the wall
For so long I have been inside it.
I am blind to see the world around me,
I only hear and feel,
I scream and submerge in my sadness
I still am the same, I haven't healed.
The wall I created,
Becomes stronger with time
The darkness does not scare me anymore
My life is little and I lay alone
The view is blocked by the wall I created
I can only hear and can only feel
I am present like a wall of a fort
That remains broken and old
I hold tales, the reason being such,
I feel so dead that
The walls became my grave,
And I live no more.
