Cage

Every scar, every freckle, and every flaw
Trying to find my way out of the depths of my insecurities, but I can only scratch and claw
There's no escape because my mind likes to keep itself in this cage
This cage filled with pent up rage.
I don't know how much more I can take.
Maybe one day these steel bars can just keep bending until they finally break
Or at least I can just warp them out of place..
Then I can just leave without a trace
Erase every mistake I've ever made..
But why is it so difficult to escape such an empty place?
To leave behind the feelings of loneliness, self loathing, and disgrace
Feelings I find laborious to shake off everyday.
