Emotionally Incarcerated

Days turned dark
Night’s cold
Feelings of depression
Never growing old

Confined in a box of solitude
With walls of shame
Pictures of happiness lost
Only memories remain

Raped by love
Damaged by lust
Refusal to try again
Too afraid to trust

Repetitious Play
Never a pause
Suicidal effects
Without a cause

Years gone by
Time misused
Reluctant to cry
Yet emotionally abused

And this too shall pass
They often say
Still the same old sad song
Continues to play

Then out of no where arose the question
Why aren’t you free?
You’ve shackled yourself in chains
Of which you possess the key!
