Stuck
I feel trapped inside a box
Clogged within my soul
Trying my way out
To reach the end pole.
Having nowhere to go
And having no one to talk
Only Makes my mind order
My tired legs to take a walk.
Distance seems small
Yet it’s a lot to the feet
I’m trying hard to get there
But the ends don’t meet
Suffocated inside the heart
Feeling gets worse now
I’m stuck inside this maze
Just thinking, “gosh how?!”
I need air to breathe
As new as it can be
I need light to shine down
Right upon me.
Quietness is powerful
It’s gotten the most from my mind
Conflicts bestow themselves
I’m getting myself hard to find.
I’m stuck inside the box
Inside a maze that seemed small
I need to get out sooner
Before every inch is forced to crawl.
