Keep going
Or you could stop
But I can't
I have to keep going on
Smile
Laugh
Breathe
Can't they see?
I'm trapped
In a cage
Without bars
No, it's not you
It's my fault
I think?
But who else's would it be?
It can wait
No it can't
Till I get home
Then I can let out
What I feel each day
Feed it
In hopes it will go away
But it is like a stray dog
Feed it once
And it comes back for more
