Incarceration

Incarceration

A Poem by The High Poet
"

This is just a ruff draft so it is pretty raw. Hope you like it :)

"
I lost myself when in that place
Loosing all of my personal space
The sharks in the water start getting near
Hide your emotions and show no fear
****
This is what you need to do to survive
The only way to stay alive
Is show no fear and don't be week
Or you might end up as their b***h for a week
****
I feel like something was ripped away
It's getting worse every day
How do I make these flashbacks stop
I look like I'm here but really I'm not
****
A shell of a man that I used to be 
Are you looking for me?  Can you really see
The pain hidden just behind my eyes
Or can you not see through my disguise
****
I wear so many masks and I am loosing myself
The stress has already started to affect my health
So many panic attacks though out the day
I'm sorry I've run out of things to say
