A Stranger?

I close my eyes.
There's a thud,
In the back of my mind
An itch crawling through my body
She's scratching at my throat
She's pounding on the walls,
Screaming breathlessly
Scratching
Scratching her way out
It's too far up...
She can't get out
So she screams silent,
Deadly screams
Aching for release
Clenched fists turn limp
She sits, dormant
Heavy breathing
They chained her to the chair
Sitting dead center
In my mind
A dark brown world
With dead leaves,
Rotting
One more burst...
Show us you're still alive?
And she screams
And she cries
"Let me out,
Let me go!"
Violent thrashes from side to side
Then her head hangs low
Exhausted but ready to plan
Her next escape
Somehow
This is how she always ends up
She scratches
She screams
She drives me insane
I close my eyes
And let her scream
Her silent cries
Inside my soul
I want to grab my hair, and
Rip it out
Just scream
Scream and yell and cry
For her
This girl that I don't recognize
Who is lost
Inside my mind

| Very powerfully written. I personally haven't felt the way you describe here, but it got through to me clearly nonetheless. |

Clearly I think she got out.
Well in this verse at least I think she found a path and could see there is an escape.
