Flint & Steel

Smoldering throat,

words come out

as smoke.

Bury me fast!

Bury me-

before hope

returns.

Self Imprisonment

It was then that I knew that I couldn't get out of this cage. I couldn't go anywhere. I couldn't find the key. I was stuck in this big metal box called me. I had trapped myself. Or rather, the little voice in my head trapped me. I tried to talk to it, to soothe it. But I was trapped in myself.
