Exit

Kate Weller

Peering through the archway
...Hesitant... to walk through
into a world I want no part in
the horrid place you call home
dwelling outlined in black
it shocks me
electrical wires zapping my brain
sparking every nerve
use them to strangle me!
yearning to suffocate to escape
I stand here alone
Secluded
In this colorful bubble
My shadows have left me
feeling lost
in your place outlined in black
longing to flee this landscape
run away from the bustle of colors
that may seem appealing on the inside
yet are outlined in black
covered in animosity
covering me
gradually I search for an answer
before I inhale my last breath of air
I fight through your demons
destruction of your soul
conquer every thought in your mind
that has blurred the world
your setting is a hazy fog
outlined in black
making it look like
the way YOU want it to be
