I strike on the wall,
I punch it,
Trying to break the invisible wall,
Trapped in a box,
Whose walls closing on me,
Trapping me,
Trying to suffocate me,
Unable to move,
Unable to walk,
It is squeezing,
Getting closer and closer,
Closer as I think,
As I think more,
Trapping me inside,
Restricting me to move,
I try harder,
Harder to break it,
Wailing and screaming,
But the box,
The box around me,
Trapping me more as I scream for help,
The box,
Seems similar,
Similar to my thoughts,
Moving on to my thoughts,
Maybe it's not those invisible walls,
Making the box,
Maybe it's not the box restricting me,
Maybe just my thoughts,
My thoughts,
Restricting me,
Making my emotions go haywire,
Making me unable to move,
My thoughts,
Restricting me physically,
Restricting me mentally,
Now after realising,
I am not striking the box anymore,
But my thoughts,
Calming them down,
Trying to take those walls away.
