...in my boxers...

My sadness envelopes me,
overwhelming a besieged soul.

I breath it in
Until I can no longer.

I get too close,
and my senses are burned.

Every angle I turn to
is a deadend to freedom.

Darkness has ensnared light;
my tunnel is endless.

better to at least feel sometimes.

Understanding this. Sometimes life's walls seem way too high to climb.

Well look at you all handsome in your uniform !! Great to read you again.
This is an aching piece. Very well done.
