How does one break
the bonds of the heart?
With a thick enough
knife, how does one start?
Why does one breathe
for people who cannot see?
Who cannot see me?
Why does one love
people who cannot be?
Yet our paths cross,
intertwining endlessly.
How does one speak
when there are no words?
If I scream loud enough
Maybe I'll be heard!
But I return to the box
And my home
And my room
If love is a prison
then life is a tomb.
