Losing it

I can see you struggling
I can hear you screaming
I can feel you stamping your feet
You are trying to break out of the box
And the more you move the narrower it gets
You are suffocating
You are barely breathing

Smiling in the middle of the room

Familiar faces and mindless chatter

You are crumbling

Taken over

As they are moving closer
his eyes are welling
he cries without them touching
they have power over him.

He buries his head in the sand
while his body shivers from the rain.
He then tries to reach for the clouds
despite the wings he never had.

He did not go far
he was tied down to the ground
he was still and not rebelling
they have power over him.
