Trapped

All I see is darkness,
Where can I find light?
Here it is full of bleakness,
I want to also smile bright!

Maybe I was cursed,
Did I prick my finger?
I hid tears ready to burst,
Your remarks linger.

I never said a whisper,
I hid in this shadow,
Invisible as a whisker,
Always feeling low.

Never did I know,
This box would become a home,
That darkness would grow and I would still be alone.

Now I want to leave,
Breathe once again,
My freedom retrieve,
Maybe revenge?

Though I can see no doors,
I feel suffocated by a snake,
Beneath there are no floors,
How will I escape?

Will I find release?
Will I find relief?
I laughed, I cried but always trapped inside.
