Sometimes

What you

Don’t remember

Will haunt you

Freedom is in

The mind

And so is

A prison

If you let it be

You had to

Disconnect

From your soul

To survive

Stepping into the

Unknown

You knew who

You had to be

To survive

To block it out

The misery

You had to

Be empty

Without emotions

A blank canvas

Because the minute

The minute

You showed

Anything

You would

Lose

Who you were

Meant to be
