My Cage
These four walls surround me
Trying to bring me down
They close in on me
Making the area
Smaller
And smaller
Trying to suffocate me
Trying to break me
Not wanting me to go on
This prison that holds me
Looking darker and more depressing everyday
Saddening me
Making me see that nobody cares about me
This cage that holds me
Showing me the darkest things I've ever seen
Letting me know of the evil in the world
Telling me sweet dark stories
Trying to recruit me
For the evil in the world
Nothing is holding me back
Nothing is in my way
I look one more time
Listen one more time
And I am on my way
Spreading the darkeness and despair
I felt inside
My cage
Trying to bring me down
They close in on me
Making the area
Smaller
And smaller
Trying to suffocate me
Trying to break me
Not wanting me to go on
This prison that holds me
Looking darker and more depressing everyday
Saddening me
Making me see that nobody cares about me
This cage that holds me
Showing me the darkest things I've ever seen
Letting me know of the evil in the world
Telling me sweet dark stories
Trying to recruit me
For the evil in the world
Nothing is holding me back
Nothing is in my way
I look one more time
Listen one more time
And I am on my way
Spreading the darkeness and despair
I felt inside
My cage

wow. I feel you. I've learned that, for myself, the only cage that could hold me was my own mind. Break free of your dark thoughts. It is in your own mind that freedom lies. Nice write and welcome to the dark side.
