How long has it been

How long has it been since my hands felt my words since my words grasped on thoughts how long has it been since pain has met ink and my mind and heart was freed how long has it been how long has it been I am trapped in my head trapped in my feelings my pain won't set me free I take the sharp blade to stop the sharp pain but what I need is the sharp pen to sharpen my strength how long has it been that the words locked inside were set free
