Cages

Yet another written at 14.

Your trapped in a cage

some people call life.

With no way to escape

except with a knife.

Bars all around you

like sorrow and fear.

Nothing can cut them down

not even a tear.

This cage is full of darkness

only pain and despair.

All hope is gone.

You just sit and you stare.

Maybe someday soon

some light will come

yet no one knows

who it comes from.

Until that time

you just sit and you wait.

Some light will come

and keep you awake.
