Trapped WithinA Poem by LuuucyI am trapped within myself In my head’s perpetual cave Trapped by what’s familiar The things that comfort me There is so much in the world That I wish to know and see But I’m here stuck with myself The one who’s stopping me I’ve watched myself Out of body Doing such courageous things But then I’m sucked back inside my head Back to doubting me My imagination is expansive What I can do, who I can be But I am not that person I have never been that free People say “Don’t ever change” And I know they mean it well But if I were to listen I know I’d hate myself When I know that who I am Disappoints me everyday When I picture who I want to be Then let her slip away © 2021 Luuucy |
