Pen to the Paper 12
Sit down and write without first planning your work. Any theme, any genre: just don't plan it first. You do not have to submit the first draft.

Caught

Bonded and chained

Stuck where you don’t belong

Agonized screams reach to the ceiling

But, you tell me you are strong

And that this prison won’t last long

I see through you, you are pained

Despite all that, you remain headstrong

You are killing all your emotions and feeling

Caught in this throng all day long

Singing and believing in that silly, stupid song

The true, real you has waned

I knew it would happen all along

You know, unless you start to seek healing

This agony and sorrow will only go on

And you'll always be stuck in this never-ending throng
