Trapped

Eden Penny

Eden was raised reading and writing. She believes it is very important for young people to use their voice in writing; there is a perspective only they have on the world that needs to be shared.
I'm in a room
It's black and I am naked 
The floor is cold, the air is hot, and eyes line the walls
Watching, knowing, seeing, breathing me in and out.
My breath.  My body.
"Go away!" I shout.  
But the air is gone.
Silent as I open my mouth
Empty as I wither
