Confined
within a small room
He
silently weeps,
Tears
rolling down the burning cheeks,
Mind
riddled with fear,
Too
weak to stand,
Fear
of being lost, restrained to loneliness
He
stays, born of pain,
Too
scared of the darkness, he longs for light,
And
deep within him the darkness grew
Tormenting
the soul,
Burning
him slowly,
For
nothing reflects his true self,
As
deep within him
Lay
suppressed, a scorching monster.
And
then finally he stands
His
trembling knees now stronger,
Eyes
frozen, mind empty,
Anger
became his fuel to embark upon the pain,
He
tries to see his reflection
For
long, he has been hidden,
He
couldn’t recall what he looked like,
For
these days of darkness has to end,
The
monster within revealing itself
In
his eyes, the anger rose,
And
he breaks the nightmare’s hold
For
the first glimpse of light,
Leaving
behind his confinement
Into
an unknown world, he walks.
