Poetry

To My Cell I Must Depart

Ever since you told meIt’s been burning deep insideAnd from the flames that chase meI can’t seem to run and hide

And yet I always keep it quietOn the outside I am stillWith every motion I defy itAs it shreds away my will

Where every night I feel the glowCall to the prison in my heartAnd still I have no place to goSo to my cell I must depart
