there locked inside a dream cage
breaths breathed rebound off the walls
no need to feel anything but rage
bouncing thought things all
around
nearly now I caught up
with reality fought it off
fell back down where I was something
came a little and came back down
into the the the back reasons
the echoes of past
the the the last remnants
just sittin' now
behind those bars again,
****,
I nearly escaped.
It was so simple
when I was young,
knowing for certain,
how did that dissolve?
