I Am Free In My Cell

by Eden   Jun 4, 2005


Is it really so hard just to complete me? This burning incense in my head screams at me to die to everything that I am...to everyone whom I love...

I used to feel like I held control in the palm of my hands...but now it is like someone else is controlling my wrists...slicing through the skin barrier wrought by God himself. Now I am being tamed by chains of lust for dark thoughts and dark ways...

Dying to feel anything against my sores...
Dying to touch anything that would burn my already melting skin.
I am over you all...
...yet I am under these majestic angels.
In many ways I am their host...
...And I shall never be free.
Even if I were, I would never take the free step into the open wilderness...for I would not have their gentle caressings to help carry me through the dreaded winters.

So I am left alone in my prison cell...but I feel like I can roam anywhere I please. In a way...

...I am free.
