I am stuck in this spot
not knowing what's going on
I keep trying to get out
but I don't know where to go
how can I run away
if I don't know where I am?
don't want to be here
don't know how to leave
it's like an endless stream
of unanswerable questions
a map with no destinations
I don't know if my eyes
are open or closed
am I deaf or just hearing things?
is someone with me or am I alone?
anger, torment, sadness and rage
someone pay the ransom
or could I just escape?
am I even being held captive
or could I walk right out the door?
I scream out loud
I beg, I plea
but no one comes to my rescue
because everyone is trapped like me
they're trapped in realization

If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything.

Okay, so I can relate to this poem A LOT! Even though I felt like the rhyming was kind of blah, I enjoyed this because it felt like me writing? Make sense? No! … all well…

Only suggestion from me would be stanzas, it would help a little bit to organize the poem better, and also help the reader be able to read

Thanks for sharing this poem with me, it really made my day to see someone write about something I’m feeling at the moment…

Hope to see more from you!

Thanks for the reply...I really appreciate it...I didn't actually mean to have any rhyme scheme in this one at all, it just happened a little at the end there. It was kinda just like random ramblings going on in my head that I just continued to write down without any kind of formality or anything, and this was the result.
