Trapped

My mouth is sealed

My hands are tied

for this is how I feel

trapped in a cage

made of invisible steel

I have wings...

that must be terrific!

No, not so for me

for my wings are clipped

I can't fly to you whenever I wish

this is so frustrating,

this is weakening my very being

It's been days since I am trapped like this

this is torture, this is not fair

can you understand me?

Are you there?

I hate everything that has happened to us

and I feel the brunt of it the most

it's I who's reaching out to you

it's I who's yearning for you

Last night was a very restless night for me

I wanted to hear your voice so badly

I called you to hear your hello

and then I hung up

hoping that you'd just buzz me back

but you didn't, you didn't do that

I even sent you two smses

to which I thought you'd

respond with a missed call

but to my utter disappointment

my phone didn't ring the whole night at all

I can't stand all this

no matter what your reasons maybe

sometimes I think you're being overly careful

when in truth NO ONE gives a big deal

I've decided that I'll lay low for awhile
call it keeping a low profile

it is for the better

I won't be hurt and feeling all down

because of you my lover

I am trapped and at the moment

there's no way out

when rescue comes

I'll be free again to shout

You won't hear from me until I'm 'healed'

from all this emotional ordeal

but please remember that I love you

no matter what I'll always love you

this is the only truth

I can assure you.
