Isolation

In a way I feel isolated. Stuck with no where to go. No matter what I want to do independence is not there. I am isolated from myself and the only way I can find my lost self is by writting. It comes out on its own, I don't invite it but that is my only independence. My soul is isolated within my body and even my eyes can not read my mind. The only way I know anything about my self is by reading what I write. I have no access to it because I always have to be with my mom or dad, or brother. I never have time so I know nothing about myself except what others tell me or I write. It is amazing. I never thought someone would know their mother better than themself. Imagine being isolated from your feelings or having no time for thoughts!

the poem I wrote is this.....

Alone

Four walls built up,
The door kept secure,
No way in and no way out;
Alone in this tomb.

No children laughing,
No singing voices-
The silence remains;
Only broken by breathing.

So cold inside-
The warm can't come-
To fill my inner depths,
Just the outer scars.

The moon doesn't shine-
The sun isn't seen-
As rising or setting beauty;
Inside this lonely tomb.

The things on the street-
Left safely out,
To stop insanity
Eating away young lives.

Alone is safe-
Alone is silent,
Alone is reassuring-
Alone is lonely.
