Trapped in my shadow
And caged in the darkness.
The black that consumes my heart
Now threatens to tear me apart.
The scar marked across my soul
I lug thickset gloom on my shoulders
From the chains that hold me
Back from the freedom I had so longed for.
I want to be free.
A shed tear makes its way down my cheek
As this train of thought sinks down real deep.
I stare at my reflection in hopes
Of finding the person that I once knew
I gaze intently at the shattered pieces
Of my heart,
Where they lay lifeless and scattered on the floor.
I sit the dark, the jail you put me in
Clenching my fists, trying to hold my anger within.
Memories flood back into my head
The way I was treated, inside I was dead.
Time halts as I relive my recollection of the past
That I thought had abandoned me before.
Fury takes over me
Like the when the angered sun blazes
I forcefully pull away, snapping the
Chains that held me in its grasp for ages
The world spins around me
As I hold my head in my hands
A tiny smile makes its way on my face as realization and reality struck me.
One thought conquered my mind at that moment
……….
I am free.
