Fear from the Inside

The outside world closes in, at the end of another day Safety and privacy, such a price you'll have to pay The open spaces and unknown places, they draw you more inside yourself In the safety of your domain, you gaze out and ask no help From . . . the outside, everything so unfeeling and stale No pride . . . no compassion, everything and everyone for sale The comfort of these four walls, yours is a caring face Such a peaceful and tranquil world, no unsteady fast rushed pace The only walls that you know, that don't close and take your breath When you step outside their shield, like a bird out of its nest Helpless and frail, trampled under by you peers The days and hours and minutes go by, escalate your age by years Blind to the problems of the rest of The world, you only see yourself in need Not because of heartless thoughts, not because of any greed Unhealthy, solace and drawn, not much to live for now Normal population is unknowing, you can tell by the laughing sounds You cry out for help from someone, no one is around to hear The locks on the doors to the outside, hold them out and interfere Fear from the inside, eating away at body and soul The vote is against you, it's shown in the masses poll
