Trapped in this thing called life,
can't get out and I don't know why.
Everything is falling down around me.
Trapped in this thing called life;
Do you understand my strife?
No, I don't think you do.
Trapped ina life that's gone,
The day YOU left, it came undone...
Why can't you see it's YOUR fault??
Trapped in the blaming game,
For everyone knows you're to blame!
The day is gone in your eyes.
Now everything is polished bright,
Nothing's wrong in their sight--
It's just a perfect prison wall...
And no one knows each others thoughts,
but faces tell the life that's not..
And all is good---in a book.
Trapped......................................

Wow, I hope you are able to break free from your trap without breaking free from life.  I wish you the best of luck.

Trapped in this thing call life
Putting up with the everday strife.
Walking through this world without a hand
Realizing you leave no footprints in the sand

Break the chains
Place you feet in wet concrete
Leave your mark on humanity.

Oh!!!  But you already have
With this wonderful gem you've written here.

WELCOME!!  Blame game and head games, two of the worst! I hate those games!

I hope you see the brighter side of things soon!
Sending rainbow smiles your way,
in hopes of lightening up your day!

I know not what the future holds,
but I know Who holds the future.

Welcome Joy...

it can be hard to see life as anything but a trap sometimes can't it? I understand...hugs, hope it gets easier soon
