Locked away, isolated, and distant from the outside world

What did I do wrong ?

Where could I have gone wrong ?

 

 My room so small and I couldn’t do anything at all

A whole house in one room

Oh how I miss my alarm 


All things structured and organized 

Why must I be characterized by

Especially by something I didn’t do…


Oh how I miss my life beyond these walls

45 years is my sentence 

So I may...eventually...fall


Maybe I should have said something

Or not said anything at all

Maybe I should have stayed tucked asleep

Or maybe I should have grabbed him by the feet


I can try to reverse the past all the times of my life

But it was my fault...my fault

Now I basically have life
