For you, it’s merely a vision;
For me, a concrete prison.
No wandering thoughts, no imagery, no dreams to keep,
Only cold and silence buried deep.
You hold me hostage in ways you don’t intend,
Trapped in a place I cannot transcend.
I can’t escape-I can’t even scream,
Lost in the ruins of a fading dream.
I don’t want to hurt anyone, yet I’m locked away,
Waiting for light to break through the gray.
Maybe you’ll set me free before I decay,
Before what’s left of me slowly wastes away.
