163.

Timor Vita Es


I live my world in a cage of glass

Like shadow’s breath I smile and laugh

Behind the panes the darkness hides

To keep me safe from death inside


Every time I reach outside

To try and leave my life of lies

The cage of glass entraps my sight

With blackened soul and blinding light


The light of darkness still surrounds

Like mist above the frozen ground

My putrid heart with dreams so dear

That chance of life erupts in fear


So scared am I of living chance

Of breaking free from cage of glass

I bind myself to selfish fears

For safety’s sake I swim in tears
