Self imposed prison: It's invisible
Every chain on the feet binding
Left in a mental observatory
Forgetting that I had the key
It was torture, living this way
My thoughts kept me surviving
Placed in a world worse than hell
Often tormented & left for dead
So it took time to find my escape
Everyday slowly crashing & burning
Driven deeper inside a self imposed prison
Putting this bluntly...all the time here
Remembering that I was still someone
It unbound the chains that held me
So right now, there's a weight off my shoulders
On this day, while I'm sighing in relief
No longer will I live...in a self imposed prison

Author notes
I'm not living in a shelter now, which makes a lot of things so much easier to survive...living in conditions like that, are literally hell!
