no escape(im my own prison)
By AnotherWitheredRose
my life feels like
like trying to scratch through concrete walls
desperate and demeaning
(id try to ask for help but i cant stop screaming)
my heart feels like
like its trying too hard keep its beat
'cause the outside is caving in
(and im claustrophobic inside my skin)
id try to break free but theres no way of escaping me
my mind feels like
like its trying to connect the dots
to place where everything went wrong
(i dont think i can handle this, i dont think im that strong)
going through the motion
of rolling with the punches
theres only so much one can take
(its just a matter of time, for me to break)

Wow! Good job. Not crypticly written, making understanding your feelings and message easy. But also written expressively, allowing readers to sympathize and empathize with you. Keep writing!

I totally understand this feeling. It reminds me of my poem let me out, but that's more of a place, not myself. Good job love ~Kitty
