Monochrome Rainbow [✔️Completed]

LOCKED UP

Getting traumatized 

is like being locked up 

in a claustrophobic little box 

nailed shut in a coffin 

buried six feet underground 

out of sight 

out of mind 

left to decay 

one year at a time 

flesh still warm 

but spirit already cold 

It doesn't kill you quickly 

it suffocates slow 

crushing you beneath its weight 

like gravity pulling you under water 

spilling into your broken chest cavity 

it leaves you feeling 

as if you're breathing through a straw 

like the air itself resents you 

and can't wait for you to die 

while you struggle 

to find a reason to keep living 

You cry out 

begging to be heard 

to be seen 

to get the help you need 

but no one answers 

because they couldn't possibly understand 

how to save you from yourself 

so your silent screams of despair 

scratch the lid above 

echoing back as silence 

leaving you in the dark 

to decay all alone 

until you're just a lifeless vessel
