Poem: I`m stuck within

Stuck Within

I’m stuck in here!

I cannot move or think

My feet won`t walk

I can see but it`s only me

I can`t get out!

It`s dark and cold and I can`t feel words

Pain crawls around inside

There’s nowhere to hide

I`m trapped in here!

Can anyone see what I see?

Or is it just me?

Everything is heavy and moving slow…..can I go!?

I`m chained and I can`t move

I have tried so many times to escape

Why can`t I go?

Hello!!

I`m stuck in here

Trapped in thoughts that won`t stop

Trapped in a mind of my own that’s blown

Trapped in a fear that is only here

I really can’t get out

I can see inside but not without

I can’t feel anything you say

Hey!!

They can`t see me

I can see them, can I flee?

I`m tired someone help me

I`m stuck in here!!

I will just wait cuz I know my fait

I will just close my eyes and stop

I will just curl up and cry

Do you know why?

...I`m stuck in here.
