laws, restrictions, rules
I'm sure they're sensible
but I feel like I'm suffocating
I'm drowning in my life
doesn't feel like I have emotions
or that I'm able to think
my life is preassinged
without the slightest chance to breathe
hopes, expectations, love
from family and friends
but all of this is a heavy burden
I'm smothered by it all
doesn't feel like I can just run now
I'd just feel such guilt
is that destiniy
without the slightest chance to fight
always recieving advise
knowing what the future brings
is my convenient life
and the past and now it links
but I feel like I'm trapped
I hate this golden cage
and on my arms and legs
appear these chains
formed by my loved ones
meant to protect me
meant to grant safety
meant to be with me
just not to break free
all life long

- We can all break free at any time. Don't lose the ones who love you and hold you dear. I simply am delighted by your poems, even though they need a bit more rhyming pattern. They show a feeling of emotion so sweet, yet sour.
