Glass Prision
Location
Do you know how it feels to be trapped in a glass prison?
Never the strength to break out
With passions so deep, roots entwined through space
But forced to take a different route
When we come of age, we all find
What passions drive us deep inside
What truly lies at our core, our life,
That we wish to grasp for, regardless of strife
Our greatest joys, laying deep within
On that path we wish to begin
Yet, it is never that simple
We walk a path of pins and needles
Opinions, norms, standards like knives
all attempt to snuff out our lights
And all it takes is one demon causing trouble
To turn our castle of dreams into a pile of rubble
We live in a world of despair, pain and starvation
Yet we mock those who wish to make their own indentation
Who follow a path less traveled
In a world so young, open skies so blue
Don’t knock someone down for trying something different or new
Until then, we must keep these lies
Keep our true selves, trapped inside
