Trapped

The voice within me

Trapped

Feeling trapped within these walls
As I stumble with each fall
I try to hold my head up high
So no-one ever sees me cry
But in my mind I scream with fear
Painting pictures very clear
Please tell me this will go away
For it can't always be this way
I often wonder if it's me
It seems that no-one else can see
Pain which dwells deep in my soul
Holding tight, not letting go
Yet, these scars which I wear
Tell a story I now bare
Scars I know can never heal
Reminding me this is real
Tomorrow is another day
And as I stumble on my way
These voices screaming in my head
Are silent whispers now instead
