-
The bars of my cage are ruethless and worn
my hands are cut and bleading from beating against them
I am just another prisoner of life
a Loner destined for Death.
The one I Love is gone
the winds have shifted.
I look into the distance from my cell.
The sunset is heart breaking.
My heart aches to run in the grass,
wander through forests,
wade through rivers,
feel nature around me.
But I am a prisoner.
The world is cold and hard.
I am given only bitterness.
No Happiness is spared for me.
Hate.
The one word that describes my life.
My cell is small and confining.
The cement has cracked but still holds strong.
A mat and a blanket lay on the floor.
No luxury for me.
I wonder what I did to deserve this.
A Past life?
A Future one?
I don't know.
I turn towards the door and see my captures.
The ones.
Death
in its Human form.
Sometimes I wonder if i will ever get out.
But I know this will never end.
Thankfully I will.
Death will be better than this.
But I will not kill myself.
It is too much pain.
Plus I promised.
I promised I wouldn't.
So I shall wait
until Death knocks on my door.
Yes I am living
but I have giving up.
My heart is empty.
I am a ghost.
My friends will leave soon.
They have served their term.
As I wave good bye some feeling comes
a spark.
However small.
It is something I am use to - Saddness
So I wait
and wait
Until my final day.
