Mouse to a cat

I feel the emotions surge

Beneath very folds of my skin

I can feel my blood boil

I can feel my head freeze

The complex mix

Of the emotional fix

Is tearing at my soul

Piece by piece

My eyes burn

My head spins

My heart races

And stops,

And tick-tock’s

Tick-tock

I feel helpless

And hopeless

Awaiting my doom

That may never come

Or may be on its way

I’m a mouse to the cat

I Never know if the cats waiting

I Never know if the cats wanting

Always feeling,

Fearing,

The Anger

The pain

I feel free, but locked up

Loose but tight,

Smooth but rough,

Black but white

But white
