Trapped

Sometimes it feels like I’m trapped in between two brick walls

And I’m not sure how I got here or how to get out

And what’s really messed up, is in the back of my mind I feel I have a clue on how to escape but my mind is filled with so much doubt

I only can remember up to the morning I was imprisoned but nothing seems odd

It’s like my mind is playing tricks on me and my memories are the deck of cards

I don’t ever remember feeling so hopeless, defeated and lonely until I got trapped here

But what’s worse is the monster lurking in the darkness that feeds on fear

I hear him coming but I can’t tell how far or near

I prepare for my demise before it actually happens

My heart beats so fast as if it’s trying to escape my chest

And just when I feel his breath close up on my neck . . .

And his sharp fingernails in my skin

I wake up from the nightmare I once was in
