A Captive of My Mind
A Captive of My Mind
I…
I am a captive.
A captive of my mind.
A vagabond in pursuit of zen,
A dreamer, confined!
I am a prisoner.
A hostage of my conviction,
That has put chains all over and around me,
Coercing me to embrace these restrictions.
I have a gaping void.
A void devoid of fortitude
To break free from this buried cage,
Forcing me to surrender to this solitude.
And yet I am a visionary,
Whether a phantom or reality,
That is still to be defined.
For right now, I am held captive.
I am held captive by my own mind!
