Oblivion

Swirling... spinning...

Dying for freedom.

Dying to breathe.

So confused.

So trusting... so betrayed.



Struggling with confines.

Shackles tearing at my skin.

Pulling even tighter.

Suffocating in this place... this cage.



No one understands.

There's no one to help.

I want out.

I can't stop falling.

Deeper and deeper I go.



Screaming for acknowledgement.

Crying in so much pain.

Ripping my heart out... it aches so terribly.

My soul burns in disgust.

This wretched world... supposedly divine.



So many lies.

So much torture.

Wounds too embedded to heal.

How have I let this come to be?

How have I let this happen to me?
