a poem about self

trapped

this body is not mine

it belongs to someone else

this can’t be my life

I was meant for more

I was so sure

want to sleep

want to dream


this heart was lost so long ago

it needs repair


there’s nothing left to give

yet I keep giving


there’s nothing left to take

but they keep taking


is it too much

just to be loved

cherished

wanted


I don’t want to know the answer


but I do
