Barred, caged, confined and bounded in a world I have no control over.
A hypothetical prison of the soul.
Circumstances chain me to the walls.
Restrained and gagged.
Struggling to break free, no escape.
Suffocating as the walls move in closer and closer.
Every second, minute, hour, day and even years!
I’ve lost count
finally light shines dimly in the distance…
No! its unreachable…
I see it disappearing and the chains around my arms and legs tighten,
bruising and cutting away at my existence.
Breaking me! Until… I'm so tiered and finally the onslaught of prison live becomes intolerable!
The world spirals out of control as I loose all control of my faculties.
I give in and lie down to die!
Like the sands of time chipping away at mighty mountains, slowly I disintegrate too.
Finally I succumb to my pain as the prison walls win.
My blood slowly coagulates and my hart stops beating,
my brain shuts down and deteriorates away until there is nothing left but an empty corps lying in the dust… finally my body lies decaying and rotting away.
Nothing remains…
ashes to ashes….
Dust to dust…
as my memory also disappears in the winds of time…
Once more the walls of captivity have claimed the meaningless life of an unimportant soul…
