These Four Walls

These Four Walls

A Poem by SilentDreamer

These four walls
Keep me sane
Help my brain
To think straight

 

These four walls

Are my home

Just me, all alone

With no place to go

 

These four walls

Imprison me

For good reason

Those beyond

Can not hear my calls

 

These four walls

Keep others safe

Keep me away

To do no harm

 

But these four walls

Can not save me

From myself

 

Yet here I will stay

There is no escape

isolation breeds beauty and death from the world of others. Beautiful work!

The repetition really drives the point home. The feeling of isolation and helplessness. It's simple, yet very powerful.
