Trapped

[alostandbrokensoul]

We're all trapped
trapped in the sanctity of our minds
where fantasy mixes with reality.
A place of endless existence
a place of endless emotion.

We're all trapped
trapped in seductive dreams
that pull us t oa place of fantasy
where reality doesnt exist
and fantasy rules all.

We're all trapped
trapped in nightmares
nightmares that drag us through endless tunnels of terror
that wake us up in a cold sweat
leaving us with only the echos from our screaming.

We're all trapped
trapped in this world
where humanity is a disease
where wars rage on between everyone and everything
where everything lives to die.

beautiful...absolutely beautiful. This poem is very strong from beginning to end and makes you look in WHOLE new perspective. This is incredible. Very nice job. I love this piece a lot and will re-read it a few times in my days. Muy caliente!

amazing work here...the last stanza was my favorite by far, because it summarizes what you had already said and laid the blame where it lies...on the world we live in...great job!

Love the second stanza, but as bloodredtears pointed out the last stanza really pulled everything together and set the truth straight. Lovely written, conveys the truth perfectly.
