You see
I have all of this pent up energy
That I believe
It is wasted on me
I want
But I cannot reach
It makes
Me want to scream
The goal
Is right there to seize
But right now
It's too far from me
Sometimes I think I might get up and fly away
Most times I feel there is an anchor that ties me to the ground
And even if I could fly
I wouldn't go anywhere at all
I feel like I'm a step away from falling or flying
But if I move too much I'll suffocate
On the chains that bind me here
So I don't move
Sometimes I try to
But it's useless
I can't
I can't let myself
I'm trapped and frustrated
In this sad world
I say take me away
But there is no answer
I'm trapped
I'm frustrated
I'm trapped and it frustrates me
That I can do only nothing
And everything is wasted energy
Take me away from here
From this
I can't stand it any longer
I need an outlet
But I am weak
And cowardly
A knife would do
Maybe a gun
I need something dangerous
At the top of a skyscraper
Is where I idle
Confronting giants
And facing my fears
I can't
No
I can
I will
I am my own self and no one can decide what I do or think or feel for me
I make those decisions
They are my very own choices
That's what I am
An equal individual
A unique human being
An entity of capability
I will not be trapped
I will not be frustrated
I
Will
Break
Free
It's never been easy
But I refuse to be frustrated
And do nothing
I can do something
So I will
