A Little Discovery


Shift your eyes towards the doors,
My shelter is a thought case.
Overwhelming me with dangers,
Mostly feelings of being blackballed.

I couldn't scream loud enough,
Even if the lies couldn't hurt me.
My voice box has been closed,
All I can do now is watch and wait.

For what though, I'm not sure.
Perhaps for a chance at freedom,
An opportunity to grasp onto something,
Real, strong and unconditional.

As I keep my eyes focused,
On the world outside my box.
There is one thing that I learn,
I may be more self centered then I thought.
