I woke up

Hospitalized

By Isaihrine BossePublished 5 years ago 2 min read

I woke up

I woke up hospitalized and realized I couldn’t recognize my eyes

They say eye for an eye

But mine comes in three

A soliloquy like Isaihrine

I and I and I

For three

I and I and I

For me

See I felt them snatch it off like a chain

I told them I can’t hang and I must remain caged

Let me sing

Let me dance

Let me get a second chance

And I’ll burst out once I’m ready

I’ll burst out once I’m steady

The pressures is too heavy

The bliss is too hefty

And I’m so right I never been a lefty

Please ask them why they’re tryna test me

I don’t mind if there’s squares next to me

I need a full circle

I need a Steve Urkel

I need a master teacher

I need a hello it’s so nice to meet ya

I don’t mind a couple features but the judgement is so beneath ya

You’re not fit to judge

You’re not fit to tug

You’re not fit for war

You’re not fit to soar

That’s just what they say

But if I remain caged

I can’t refrain from breaking free

There’s multiple beings channeling within me

There’s multiple beings channeling to be free

And see me I’m going to keep it rolling on

And see me I’m going to keep speaking in song

And see me I knew all along I could be strong so this cage doesn’t bother me as long as I can shape•shift until I’m free from this caged society being caged is no bother to me, my mind is free and I pay no fees although I’m caged I can remain me until I’m no longer caged my mind can’t be tamed and these capsules won’t confine me society can’t define me and if you ride away that’s fine with me cause I can’t plant lying seeds, I’ll plant dying seeds ready to fly with me ready to get high with me unshakable, unbreakable recognition.

Let me know if you’re scared of mysterious missions..

Life doesn’t frighten me

dark tunnels are bright to me

let me breathe and I’ll let you see society can’t confine me, society can’t confine us. I woke up hospitalized and realized and I can’t recognize you, tell me what did you do, tell me if it’s really you.
