The day went by so fast
I can barely catch my breath
I feel my lungs tightening
It's hard to breathe
Asthma attack?
No, i'm just paranoid
Yesterday bad news
Today good news
Tomorrow good and bad news
Why must they treat me as if I am a child
Can't they tell me everything I need to know
Can't they give me a clear answer
I'm on a tight leash
I can't venture further than twenty feet
Every time I step out of their boundaries, the pain around my neck escalates
The collar still makes a bright red ring upon my dark complexion
I gnaw at the collar, but nothing gives
Too many times have I lost teath in the process
Someone melt this chain
For I have chewed down to my gums
Have to break free before I adapt to this pain
Before I become immune to their trickery and lies
If I am not released soon
I will lose every ounce of strength within me
Then the door will be locked
The key will be swallowed
I have given up

| Good and interesting. The style is different but good nonetheless. |
