When will this be over?

I am not who I used to be,
I am who I have become.
Circumstances have 
dictated my metamorphosis.

Do I want to be who I am now?
Perhaps on some level
I have evolved
I have become a realist.

Reality has dictated
this state of being.
Confinement, for way too long,
drives isolation into loneliness.

Doubt and fear grasping
the breath of life
that I so cherish
and find slipping away!

It feels as though
it"s an out of body experience,
as if someone else has a hold
of my ability to move.

This entity has grown
day by day
taking control with no purpose
but to just dominate my mind.

How can you fight an unseen foe?
Can you call for help?
But then you wonder who is listening
during this isolation?

One day soon,
the lightness of being
will return
and all of this will be over!
