Immersion
Like a wave crashing against a dark, hollowed cave
I beat my chest, stripping the pain
Unlike the moon who shines its brilliant light
I stand faded by the deceit and lies
Wishing for truth
Succumbed by your own vice
As the tree who's been uprooted
devastated and left behind
I feel neglected and bare of my pride
Not just tossed aside but shooed away
sawed to pieces
engulfed by flame
Like the bird flying high in the sky
I'm free yet captured inside
Locked in a solid iron cage
My heart weighing heavy
Seduced by outrage
shot to death
caught surprised
dreaming of just a place to hide
