frustrated I look at you
weeping on the inside
pleading with my head
feeling with my heart.
Could this be the day,
could this be the day that I
blow you away.

Twisted with hatred
this is my forgotten
hell. (shattered voices yell)

your eyes drip with
sympathy, i wipe it away
with a smile to let you
know that i am quietly
sane.

Stuck in web of rage
Let me out of my CAGE.
Let me be ok.
Let me go insane.

I'm going to lay my head
down.
Please don't let me drown
away in
my dreams.

Very nice write....it has a musical quality to it.  For some reason it feels to me like a song.

I really like how you've written this.  It's powerful and clearly stated and the first of yours I've read, as I recall.  Will watch for more, enjoyed!

Written with the power of a pressure-cooker ready to explode..........
