I lay there holding my knees
For what seemed like ages to me
Peering through the bars
Looking for light
But squinting away as a Ray fell on me

Confinement is not fun, I thought
Confined not within a dungeon
But worse, my mind
I wonder its been ages
But my insecurities
being strong bars around me
Was preventing me from going out


Its not empty here
It's not silent
But lonely
plagued by thoughts
that neither let's you eat nor sleep
The sunken sockets and droopy eyelids
Shows the time when sleep was lost


There was no escape
For I was Confined within me, by me
Funny as it sounds, it amazes me
But then I wake up
Knowing that there was no other way
Other than me letting myself out


But the more easy it sounds
The more it is hard
But now I know, the longing for freedom
The longing for fresh air to breathe
To feel the light touch my face
To be in its warmth, to be engulfed by it
Fully, not able to withstand
the cold air around

Fully awakened, enlightened
I begin my quest to embrace liberty
To break free from the clutches of loneliness
The bars of confinement
Prodding for ways to let go, to fly
Breaking the layers of darkness
Around me
I will, I will for sure
come out of this depressing confinement
To begin a new life happily
In a new world of imaginations
To face the reality
Never letting loose
The reins on my thoughts.....
