Trapped

Everywhere I look
I see it
I feel trapped in a cage
My light no longer lit

It descends on me
In an instant
I cower at its presence
This is always consistent

I know what I must do
But it hurts me so much
I grab my weapon
And cringe at its touch

I slice my arm
But I can't see what I've done
My heart beat fades
Until there is none
