My Escape

Jun 04, 2008 - 20:10 PM PST

I dream a million dreams, but fail to see.
I think a million words, but fail to speak.
I hear a million sounds, but fail to listen.

My body is frazzled, my heart is breaking.
I lie at night, my hands shaking.
The foul odor of Captivity is overpowering.

No light, no music.
No companions.
I am truly alone.

They may beat me, starve me, rape me.
They may try to break me.
But I will escape.

In my mind I find beauty.
In my mind I find hope.
In my mind I find life.

Forever shall I find solace in my fantasies.
