Trapped in the Free World

A glass prison
is the worst of them all;
the doors unlocked,
yet the handle
is taboo to touch.

    Wow. What a stunning analogy. I have felt trapped that way many times before.

    It’s great that you can relate to it; I actually did write this to pass time whilst trapped in a room with people I didn’t hold any liking for.

    “Trapped within an open cage..and no one knows my rage” comes to mind. I find your succinct poem very appealing and true for many people, myself included.
