Ire

Draven

Caged.

 

Trapped within a situation beyond her control.

                                                                                     …or is it?

 

The thoughts don't leave her alone in the middle of the night.

 

                                                                                        What if?

 

                                                    If only?

 

If I could somehow…

 

Yet day after day,

week after week,

 

she changes nothing.

And nothing changes.

 

With only herself to blame

 

raging, full of ire

 

she bashes her head against her bars.

    It’s difficult to feel stuck and trapped … sometimes we stay in situations even tho we may be able to find a way out .. very confusing , and to feel guilt and self blame is not easy

    A good writing )

    Sometimes I blame myself for things ,

    • Draven

      I think it is always the easiest to blame yourself... it is endless torture and so very confusing.
      Thank you!

            Sometimes we stay in situations because of our low self worth or confusion or fear .. sometimes we simply think there is no way out ,

            • Draven

              That is very true!

              Sometimes the system traps us, sometimes we trap ourselves.
              Feel like the last two years for the world.

              • Draven

                Aint that the truth.
