Trying to Escape

My head

By Sadie ColucciPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

Trying to Escape

Trapped inside my head

No way to get out

The hamster wheel keeps rolling around

Words jumbled in my brain

Inexplicable thoughts

Confused emotions

All locked in a box

Like being locked inside my head

Trying desperately to find a way to escape

Music, poetry, writing

Any way to distract n disengage

Living a secret life

With nobody to understand

Sometimes it gets lonely

Without the support of a friend.

Every night a repeat of the last

Unless preoccupied, my

brain repeats the past

Living a happy and normal life

Nobody would know my feelings

It’s easy to hide my true thoughts

When nobody could hear what I’m thinking.
