Ehhh, What?

Uh, I don't really know where I went with this. But I know what I mean, I feel trapped, let's just leave it at that.

Sometimes I feel trapped by my lies,

Like I'm suffocating myself right in front of my eyes.

Yet no one seems to hear my cries,

Damn, my brain is fried.

I think I need some time to think, to reassess

Why don't I just let this all process.

It's dangerous, I'm scared

My fears beyond repair

Who told you emotions were meant to be bared?

I want to scream and shout!

And make sure everyone knows what this is about

But I'm tired

Looks as if I'm about to be fired.

These lines seem useless, futile

It all makes me seem like a child

But let this poem be filed.

In the case of an emergency come and get me

What is it going to be?

What's going to set all my feelings free?

It may not make sense, or even seem logical;

But isn't all poetry just wonderfully magical?

You rhyme and you say

Exactly what feelings you have at bay

Of your heart.

You must always lay

All your feelings to rest until another day

And just hide them on lay away.
