Book of Poems - Polluted Darkness

Tighten

My throat tightens

As stress shoots high

I am left vulnerable

Overwhelmed to cry

What emotion can I dignify?

His grip tightens

Ruling every aspect

Of my life, I lost control

Sadness and anger collect

I am left completely wrecked

Perspective tightens

Who can I trust?

The people out there

Can they be friendly and just?

I am choked with distrust

The soul tightens

My dreams are killed 

Ambitions sacrificed 

Merciless, my heart is drilled

My faith cannot rebuild

My will to live...

Will it ever tighten?
