letting no one in or out.
See-through walls torture
as no one can see in.
brings little relief.
Screaming only wears
as no sound can travel.
Trapped forever in this box,
this box of shadows.
Driving the one inside crazy
as the mind overloads.
Tears dangerously wait
to stream down.
No one there waiting
to wipe them away.
Nightmares keep pounding
preventing any form of sleep.
Daydreaming is worse;
praying for the nightmares.
Hand over the lonely soul
and thrive in the darkness.
For there is no escape
from the walls that trap us.
