• Containment is a minuscule
    self built cage
    Trapping me inside myself,
    Thick iron bars keep the outside out
    Holding me inside a metal mouth.

    I cry hysterically,
    And scream so loud it gets silent
    But nothing can penetrate the grey cement ceiling.
    It’s cold inside and out

    Surrounding me with nowhere to hide,
    It leaves me alone
    Slowly destroys me
    The distant outside walls,
    Make me their slave

    Surrounding me with nowhere to hide,
    Yet there is nothing there.
    I have no where to run

    For my own protection
    I created this entrapment
    Might be easier if I could
    Blame someone
    But I can’t

    I hammered the nails,
    And closed up the bars
    On me.
    I Fought and kept everyone out

    But,
    Now I sit here alone,
    Trapped,
    Wishing someone would come
    Find me,
    And let me out.
