Thoughts

I'm trapped inside this house,
While you hold the key.

That perches in the soul,
Of my sorrow and depression.

The voice in my head,
An unwelcome guest,
A prisoner of my own demise,
A soldier trapped behind enemy lines.

With arms of steel at either side,
I broke apart this house i call my mind.

And forever free,
From empty thoughts,
I'll be.

My teacher in my creative writing class gave my class a prompt where we had to bring in three lines from our favorite songs and put them into a poem. This is what came out in the end.
