January 12, 2011
Trapped by a box
With no seams
Bound by ropes
Each day a strand stronger
The sun is setting
It feels that it will never rise
The night brings horrors
But I am used to them, they are nothing
I am more afraid of what morning holds
This night is different
The fear is still there
But it is fueled by hope
My eight sparks of light
Eight loves, grounding me
Depend on me
They hate me now, fear my actions
But I know I am right, this is right
All alone, yet surrounded
No one can live like this
One option
One chance
