Mirrored Prison
My body is breaking, the mind ahead of it’s time.
I’m scared of stopping, my clock is mis-chiming.
Numbness settles in, my days blend never end.
Nerves have me quaking, it’s becoming overly shaky.
Anger chokes my throat, not a sound escapes to maintain this pace...
I want to scream, shout out loud.
Break apart, cry my eyes out.
Smash the mirror to escape, I want to breath easy.
Smile from the depths of my soul, be genuine.
Be me, to be free...
