Past

 

Trapped

Tossing, turning 

No where to hide from

The pain

Pressing your back against the wall

Head buried in your arms

Silence surrounds like a cloud 

Not a song bird, not a quake,

No creaks and grinds of the old hinges

All that is left is the sounds of sobs

A burst of endless cries.

No way out of these walls

Desperate for air and a gentle sound

From a voice any voice

All alone sleep becomes your only friend

Every nightfall a flash of your past

It's the same one over and over

Your with friends smiling seeing the world for its greatness.

Dreams soon become nightmares

Everyone you have known disappears

Never to be seen again.

Your the only one left

Gazing around the room 

A far window becomes your only light 

If your lucky a person walks past lightly

pats on the cracked pavement.

Cry out no answer

Going back to the wal in despaire with no escape

Arms are scratched and battered

To make the painful past marked in your veins

Asking your self

How could you have prevented this?

Done better?

Wishing you could save your life 

But seeing no way. 

Looking back at the window

Wanting a kiss of sunlight

A breath of fesh air for the one you breath smells hostile

The days pass

What time is it?

What day?

Suddenly footsteps aproach 

To the window 

Your heart fills with hope

As you see a girl with angle soft hair,

Blue eyes, ripped jeans, and ragged shirt

These eyes stare at you 

You soon realize this girl is you.

She whispers

Why are you trapped in your past?
