sitting in a bright room
lit up with artificial lights
ugly office chairs
boring artless art
***
creativity dying
minute by minute
my soul crying
begging for freedom
***
one day I’ll be out
of this grey
corporate world
I’ll put colors in my life
surround myself with
abundance of joy
***
until then I’ll be here
writing poems
they’ll never see
about what I hope
to make
my life be
