My Own Prison

by *colorsofmylife*   Jun 27, 2006


Walking into the stiff room
an old man waits for me in his chair
he already has his sketch pad in his hand
why would he actually care about my problems
it was stupid to think that he ever did
all he wants is my parents money
to go home to his wife and kids; his happy family
laying down in the chair; I let out a deep sigh
the hour never seems to pass by quick enough
the first question breaks the silence
and the answers must not be too long
he can't get under my skin; I tell myself
every session is the same questions, same answers
it has become a pointless cause
I'm never going to let go of all this pain
will not let anyone else in too see the show
the walls have been built to think with stone
I guess I will always be stuck in my own prison

    Love the rythem and flow and how it shows what is happening and it never reveals the actuall thing it is about but at the same time it does (does that make any sense?)

    Therapy actually works. If you have someone you really cares about their job. Trust me when I say this, but there are a lot of people out there that love helping people. They may seem like they are in it for the money, but they can really help, they wouldn't go through that many years of schooling to have it go to waste. Really good poem, keep it up.

    I can really relate to this poem.. every line of it was like me talking. I always enjoy poems I can relate to. This had a lot of emotion in it, and the flow was pretty good. Great job!
