Analysis of In The Wound



You weren't trapped-but comfortable in your own confinement
Knees tucked in it was a comfortable alignment
Comfortable in your environment-you saw no means of a fault
Until there's a whole in the wall and reality pours in
So used of the silence of you being the only one in your world- you cried teardrops stained by life
You've been born into a world where nobody knows you- yet everyone has expectations for you already.
They didn't ask if you were ready before they pushed out of the deep end into an empty pool with nothing connected to support you.
You weren't over the moon with the circumstances in the Mother. Land.
