I am living in a house,
With no windows or doors.
How am I meant to grow and breathe,
When no light or air passes through?

it is all supressed and stangnet,
Supplies of hope and meaning run low.
Instead piles of discouragement,
Consume every inch of space.

Parents do not exist,
In their places are masses of unnerving blobs.
Sucking every ounce of independence,
eating away at my dreams.

There is no way out,
it is a box of horrors,
You can't do anything, not even fight,
So why do they treat me as their trophy?

Joy and happiness are non existant,
But anger and depression run rampant.
Why do the blobs penetrate my soul,
And erase the happy memories within?

Freedom is meant to be that, free.
But I don't feel it at all.
I am still ruled by the vindictive monsters,
Still obeying orders like a solider.

The clock is striking every hour,
As time is rolling slowly by.
A release is what I dream of,
But confinement is the reality.

I know well how that is. Very nice poem, easy to identify with.

"Sa souvraya niende missian ye." I am lost in my own mind.

Interesting read. Sounds like a mental prison. Nice Imagery!

A life isn't significant except for its impact on other lives.
