caged
frantic beating of my heart
caged
thumping between my ribs
enraged
years rushing past
aged
these scars haven’t healed
manged
happy smile on my face
staged
how long should the rope be
gauged
the war in my mind constantly
waged
an observer to life
disengaged
trauma, eons ago, leaves me
outraged
my desire for justice never
assuaged
so poem after poem I’ve
paged
clearing energy around me
saged
aiming for hell’s gate
saved
