Trapped

This is my daily struggle..

I feel like I'm trapped.
Trapped within myself.
Stuck to deal with all these emotions.
Emotions that shift too quickly.
I'm trapped within myself.
With no way out.

It's too much to bear.
I'm at my breaking point.
If only I could work this all out.
But I can't.
I'm trapped within myself.
And have no idea how to fix it.

As the stress builds up,
The emotions shift rapidly.
Trying to drag me in different directions.
Which leaves me stuck in a rut.
Once again, trapped within myself.

I'm crying, silently screaming.
And I don't like how this feels.
Why can't I be normal?
Why can't I stop dragging myself down?
I'm trapped...
With emotions wildly out of control.

Can you fix me?
Can you help?
I just want it to stop...

I can relate to this feeling, I have felt this way before and at times I still find myself going down this path. I liked how this was a spoken poem, it doesn't need to rhyme or have a set rhythm it's good just to get your feelings out. I don't know why you are exactly feeling trapped, but reminding ourselves with positive things and shutting down the negative thoughts may help. Sometimes it is just a daily struggle and we have to find things to do that keep our minds occupied or that we enjoy doing, for me focusing on my faith really helps. While reading this, it kinda reminds me of a poem I wrote called Glass Walls, about being a prisoner within yourself.

Thank you for the review and for your insight. I do forget to block out negative thoughts sometimes, which only makes it worse. I will try to focus on more positive thoughts. So, thank you again

You're welcome, and yeah I do the same thing, I think we all do from time to time. It may take some time to get into the habit of thinking more positively but it will improve.
