A glass hallway with no escape <br />Nobody can ever get in <br />I can never get out <br />Watching the world with narrow eyes <br />Maybe I can break the wall <br /> <br />No. It's too strong <br /> <br />I've built this place since my youth <br />Row by row I sealed my fate <br />Wanting a way to escape <br /> <br />Stupidity. <br /> <br />Foolish child <br />If you could've seen <br />That the sanctuary you built <br />Someday will be my tomb <br />Would you have still created it? <br /> <br />Too high to climb <br />I walk down the path that everyone takes <br /> <br />Alone. <br /> <br />Poor soul <br />Your existence is long <br />They look in on you and wonder <br />But will never know <br /> <br />Now all you can do is walk <br />Lift your face and accept you death <br /> <br />A glass hallway with no escape.<br /><br />Deana Rode<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/1997-glass-hallway/
