Caged

I'm on my own
Forever alone,
But I'll never let you break me.

You isolate me,
You violate me,
But I'll try to remain whole.

Can't you see
That you're words hurt?
I'm slowly loosing me.

You've trapped me now,
Locked me up.
Forever remaining caged.

I try to break free,
But I have no one.
They all chose you.

I shriek and I shout,
But you never let me out.
Is it worth getting out of this cage?

It hurts,
Oh it hurts so much.
I don't think I can take it.

I hurt myself,
Hoping it'll take the pain away,
But it doesn't.

You're making it worse.
I'm not better than an animal,
Put on display in a cage.

I have no purpose,
I'm no good,
I'm worthless.

Trapped in my cage,
All I can do is listen.
Guess I'll go by majority rules.

I lay on my bed,
Put a gun to my head,
And cry as I end it all.
