Locked inside Myself

Locked Inside Myself

Screaming, scratching, clawing crying;
Struggling while my soul is dying.

Wrenching. wretchng, stabbing, tearing;
Trusting none, no longer caring.

Burning, bleeding, grasping, groping;
I've given up pretense of hoping.

Reaching, wanting, needing, trying;
I've thrown away the dream of flying.


Trapped inside my weakened shell....
   I long for heaven,
but live in hell.
