Liberation!!





Imprisoned…


Walls created by herself,

Of notions and fears unknown,

Confined into a shell of her own...



With a shrunken heart and chained spirit,

Feeling helpless and doomed,

Seeing nothing but darkness around...



Waiting for someone,

To open the door

And

Set her free…..



Will she be able to find the key??

Will she ever see the light??

Or

Hold herself back only to perish!

    Hope will show the light; I know that to be true, one of my friends has such fears too, and she just believes she can get out of it, so she will do it :) you truly wrote on shackles, a lovely poem.

    Rameshji,thank you for visiting again.
    Yesterday's comment was little elaborate though expressing similar thoughts.I do not know how to publish it from my dashboard.
    Thanks again.

    Nice imagery, but so sad. Sometimes, it is indeed our own shackles keeping us trapped. Thanks for sharing.

    She will find the key....soon. For now she knows she only can do it.

    Well expressed. Picture goes well with the poem.

    You have me thinking of all the waiting I have done over the years, all the times I have decided to stay stuck. Well-written poem. Thanks.

    Wonderful imagery. Almost felt compelled to just go near and snap my finger to set her free from her prison

    Day light always follow after dark night. She will see it and rejoice in it.
