Terror Behind the Walls
August 29, 2010
I once was Jackie
I was loved
I was cared for
I had a family.
Then...
I was stepped on
I was kicked under the bed
I was pulled apart
Crunch, squeak.
The hot breath
In the dark
I need air
I need a turn.
I crave the first note
While I wait, wait
I can hear the excitement
Of all who are near.
I want the shrieks
I want air
BAM
They scream as if they've seen a monster.
Can't they see what lies inside of me?
I am beauty
I am truth
I long to be free.
No walls can contain me..
