Trapped

Society is a trapped box we can't escape.

By Esther MPublished 8 years ago 1 min read
All that influences us, controls us. We're stuck in the box of society.

I’m stuck in a bubble and wish to escape to breathe real air.

But I have yet to find the surface...

_______________________________________

I want to speak, but they won’t let me breath.

They say I can be “me” but the only the way they see.

They say they love me but throw me hate.

I can’t even take a break.

I’m sorry, I’ll never speak

~A letter for my disappointed foe

______________________________________________

Here’s my heart but you already took it.

You left me broken, but you never knew it.

Sure it was a game, but you left me in pain.

So please end it, and take it away.

~To My Bullies
