trapped by the hands of fate
born into a life filled with hate
panic stricken
pondering life's lessons
possessing no answers
to tormenting questions
just thoughts of me
who I used to be
when did I get stuck like this?
in these four walls
this nothingness
can no one hear my screams?
dragged down to see
my shattered dreams
fragments of a past
scattered about
filling this box
with no way out

Powerful
I felt the hopelessness of your words.
We all face this preplexity of life at
sometime or another. Whether it's
of our own making or not is up for
debate. Nonetheless, the emotions
are real. Nice write
