A Battered Soul

        
                      Lost and consumed
                Placed in a poisonous cage

                 Minds’ being sentenced to life
               Jagged steel stabs like a knife

           Locked the door while walls were built
                Threw away the key to hide quilt

                                  Diving
                       Winds already blown

                            Head held high
                        Silenced the thoughts

                              Swimming
                   We slipped off the mound

                   Getting caught in a net of lie's
                   Look into them dreadful eyes’

                              Suffocating
                       Longing to breathe

                              Stinging rays
                   We got stuck in current ways

                               Drowning           
                   Our ship's heart's sinking

           Tossed out a raft to keep them afloat
                 There's no life on this  boat

              Crashing the shore against waves
                All I saw were two open graves
