Its not a lost cause <br />If a window still remains <br />Look through its glass <br />Smile at the world <br />It’s there waiting <br />And that’s all it ever does <br />On the other side <br />Life looks electric <br />Are you trapped? <br />Sinking deeper in lonliness <br />But freedom lies in solitude <br />Peaceful, calming <br />No walls to hold your thoughts <br />Just let them flow, <br />Flying free over the waves <br />Carried by the wind <br />Its all freedom <br />Inside each owns mind <br />So where are you? <br />Stuck indoors <br />Staring through the window <br />At the wildly world untouched <br />But suppose you walked outside <br />What would you find? <br />The beauty etched away <br />Nothing as the way it seemed <br />From the safe walls behind <br />So in the darkened room you dream <br />Of all the things that could be <br />And still you see through the glass <br />captivated by true sunlight <br />Tell yourself to still believe <br />In the hills so lush <br />The trees so alive <br />And spend the rest of time <br />Dreaming inside <br />in your own world of mind<br /><br />Leah Ayliffe<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/window-s-lie/
