Slave
The chamber closed
and I
found myself lost
Though riches were scattered all around
That meant nothing at all
I'd been swallowed whole
I found myself soul searching
crying out to the lord
As if it mattered any more
What mattered was escaping
but I couldn't
I scratched and kicked
deeper I sank
into darkness
What stared back was...
nothingness
Gold shimmered, silver twinkled
But all I could see was enslavement
I was a slave
A slave at the mercy of a cave
Slave of a slow death
a slave inside a cage
I prayed and prayed
but darkness remained
The cage suddenly became noiseless
It became still
I awoke
The cage became real
I was still... in prison
