Life

Jacob Bennett

How did I get here?

Confined to this cell.

My eyes see nothing,

My personal hell.

 

Head filled with lies,

I rot away.

The door is open,

Here I stay.

 

Time becomes meaningless,

Days into years.

I have nothing left,

Not even tears.

 

I float for eternity,

In and out of sleep.

This ground of dirt,

Is where I seep.

 

Who am I?

Does anyone know?

Into this soil,

Is where I now grow.

 

Nothing can free me,

I cry alone.

No one can save me,

This is my home.

 

Oh well.

  • Comment from author about the poem: I hope to express the way I feel about how my life is going right now. I do not intend to express a sense of depression, instead I want to convey my feelings of isolation and hopelessness. I am actually quite content with where I am right now in my life, but there are somethings that I cannot manage to get right.
