Escape
Trapped by a box 
 
 With no seams
 Bound by ropes
 
 Each day a strand stronger
 The sun is setting
 
 It feels that it will never rise
 The night brings horrors
 
 But I am used to them, they are nothing
 I am more afraid of what morning holds
 
 This night is different
 The fear is still there
 
 But it is fueled by hope
 My eight sparks of light
 
 Eight loves, grounding me
 Depend on me
 
 They hate me now, fear my actions
 But I know I am right, this is right
 
 All alone, yet surrounded
 No one can live like this
 
 One option
 One chance
