residing in an idyllic peace
is a wonderful thing
it strengthens you
it calms you
but when quiet tranquility
turns into deafening silence
and the comfort from being with yourself
fades into the pain of isolation
you will slowly be smothered
while it takes hold of you
in those moments
the walls seem endless
windows blocked by iron bars
and you'll choke on the warmth
of your own home
the house transforms into a cage
in which you will be trapped
until the sun rises
once more
