Survivors Prison

In self-imposed prison, I dwell alone, Shackled by shadows of thoughts I've outgrown, Love once the captor, now locked in my mind, I've built walls so sturdy, solace I find. In self-imposed prison, time slowly twines, Embracing each fear as it inches behind, Love, once a beacon, now lost in my soul, I've embraced the darkness, surrender my goal. In self-imposed prison, I'm doomed to abide, A survivor's nightmare, a love cast aside, In self-imposed prison, I dwell alone, Shackled by shadows of thoughts I've outgrown.
