Escape

There is a pain inside that won’t go away,
It can’t surface to see the light of day.
Sorrow, pain, sadness,
Causing the inevitable madness.
The once bright colors turn to gray,
This horrific pain has come to stay.
I do everything wrong, I’m never right,
But no one sees my pain, it’s bottled up tight.
I want to cry, to scream, and shout,
But I can’t. my please of help won’t come out.
Silence used to be a welcomed friend,
But even that came to an end.
What once welcomed me with open arms,
Now holds me captive with its charms.
I’ve tried to cry, but tears won’t fall,
I feel trapped against a wall.
"Please, someone, help me!"
But no one hears my plea.
I’ve tries to escape, I’ve tried,
But with pain and fear I’ve been tied.
There is no escape for the faint of heart,
I’m doomed to live a life apart.
