I remember feeling trapped behind bars I couldn't see And not knowing if freedom is even a real thing. Because how do I get free from bars I can't see? And break chains that shouldn't be, or battle pain I shouldn't have to see. And all because I was mentally in a room with no windows but chains and them bars I can't see. So me, as a failure was something I had to accept because of the repeat reminders I forgot to correct. Physically free but mentally bound, consistent cycles and nothing profound. Now I have to remind myself that I can just be, nothing is coming to hurt me, and I am free. What was, is no longer and all old things must flee, and I no longer have to remind myself that I'm not behind bars I can't see.
