My Cell is a Fire
Bars around me
Far too wide
I see their eyes
flashlights in my crosshairs
the fire is burning
inside my cell
i hold the keys
i cant seem to throw them
every road behind my chucks
has lead me further
into a maze
of cars and trains and planes and shields
how can i escape
why should i try
the fire brings me warmth
i forgot my coat anyway
no i think im fine
looking through to the outside
i dont need these bars
baracade me, please
but i wait too long
to rest my eyes in moment
and i see you rise
your steady shoulders broad
shut, please shut
i scream to my hands
obey my commands
obey my tyranny
but the movies don’t end
my eyes begin to flood
this cell was my home
it is now dust
the moon begins to blind me
and the eyes i see burn
and the clothes are torn
and the wind speaks
the air is deafening
throbbing my atrium
stay away
hold on
leave
stop
go
my cell is a fire
