All I Am

Relative peace, I'm of sound mind.
But no matter what, I try to hide.
With every step, you take towards me,
the devil's cry, is like a white scream.

For every touch, for every breath,
I'm caged, inside your lies.
You have no regret, only your ill contempt.
Speak, why are you so disgusted with me?

Relative silence, I'm trapped alone.
I scream, and I write.
The blood, is all my own.
It stains, the cage's walls.

For every taunt, for every lie,
I break further, all alone.
You don't care, you don't even stare,
For all I am, is there.

Relative honor, and I have sacrificed,
this fear, is just cold.
My terror, pleases you.
But... what is it, if not gold?

For every laugh, every hunch,
I realize, I am your soul.
You hurt me, because you can't leave me.
How does it feel,
to be trapped inside?

Forever, all I am... is your cage.
It is so hard to describe! I guess that all I can say is that I hope you like the poem, and if you don't, please leave some helpful critiques so I can improve my writing skills.
