Cross to Bear

I feel like a ghost.

A floating entity

Wasted by life.

Shackled be responsibility.

Languishing from one day to the next

Burning for a change but strung out on hope.

I fall.

Longing for freedom

Caught in a rotating cell.

No hope for change

Imprisoned be reality.

Consistent unchanging world

Broken by the mangled fangs of repetition.

I fall.
