Trapped

Luke Z Marsden

im trapped in a state in which i cannot escape
people talk at me but i cant relate
selfconsious paranoia dictates my actions
every reaction causes a fatal reaction
deep inside my emotions suppressed
sitting in the dark alone and depressed
to a fetal state my mind digresses
the voice in my head an unwelcome guest
a prisioner of my own demize
a soilder trapped behind enmy lines.
