Forever Contained

The Scream

FOREVER CONTAINED

My mind is a prison...
where my spirit lies
confined.
It seeks escape...
but is forever contained;
It looks for rest...
and finds none;
It seeks to know...
but is kept from knowing;
It longs for peace...
but none comes:
there in darkness,
apart from love,
held by chains it cannot break.
