Poetry: Being trapped

by Michelle Buitenhuis

Created on: April 30, 2008

Hiding behind curtains
That are dying to reveal
What stands behind.

A mask that is covering
The truth, the real kind.

A wall that surrounds my heart,
Reaching to the sky.
The ladder to climb it is missing,
The key to the door thrown away.

A gate secures the premises
And goes all around to the back
Locked a million times.

No one can come in
And I can't get out!
Trapped!
