Trapped
October 2, 2014
I feel trapped
Trapped inside myself
Like a mime in a box
Trapped by society,
by what's expected of me.
I'm wearing a disquise
Hiding myself
Shielding myself
Trying to escape
Not trying to be trapped.
But I'm already trapped
Trapped by this false identity.
I'm an identity theif,
yet I'm a victum.
This is how I feel
Like I'm someone else
Not myself
I can't express myself
Being myself is wrong,
but being someone else is wrong.
I'm confused
I'm lost
I'm...I'm Trapped
