That Breaking Point
It takes you in, there is no way out;
Caged in.
I can see the freedom,
But I’m trapped.
I struggle:
Every second-
Minute-
Hour-
Day.
There is no way out.
Pieces of my thoughts turn spoiled,
Pieces of my smile slowly decays,
But my heart becomes strong as steal.
I don’t give up,
Ever.
I want to escape so badly,
Some days it seems impossible
To reach that freedom.
I want to be happy again,
No worries-
No stress-
No hatred.
Someday I will escape this trap.
I will break from this cage.
It could be tomorrow,
Or next year.
Now it’s not much of a trap;
It is just an obstacle in life.
