Cage

I don't like my name

I don't like my face

I don't like my body

I don't like change

Everyone wants to free themselves

To get out of their cage

But the cage is where i feel safe

To stay in it forever

And not say a word

Wipe my existence

From the universe

Unable to do wrong

Unable to hurt

Unable to burden

Unable to yearn

I like my cage

I don't want to leave

Hopefully the longer I stay

The more people will forget me..

Author's Note

Am I the only one who feels this way?
