Boundary.

Boundary.

I sit here.
Behind thick glass,
with a view so perfect
of a world so harmed.

I sit here.
Wishing to explore,
that which is still virtuous,
untouched and pure.

I sit here.
Wanting the world
at my fingertips,
needing the freedom
without this boundary.

I sit here.
Behind the glass,
Wishing I could fly.

    Your poem expresses what many of us feel today and you have explained it so well. I feel like nothing should be changed as you have truly portrayed your need for that freedom, to go past the boundry line and fly away from hurt and shame. A deep and meaningful work of art, nicely done.

    *I'd maybe change "the" to "thick" that way the image of the glass you're behind is better. But I love what you are saying here. It's sad how clearly we can see destruction. I liked that this one was short. Every line had a purpose and added something else to the story you were telling. Sad but so true. Winderful job here hun. You're amazing :) Keep writing. Nik*

    This was amazing, what I got out of this poem was how at times there like a wall up and with that in the way it takes away all the freedom and everything we wish or want to do in life.. but with that there it's like a roadblock for us in pursuing our wishes. Loved this, well done and welcome to the site. (:
