her uneasy eyes searched around the room
looking for someone she?ll never find.
she bit her lip in anticipation.
but emotionally this girl is blind.
She thought she knew what she wanted out of life
optimistic eyes filled with innocence
but she kept getting pushed down once again
by this emotional violence.
she wanted to believe that she was real
she sat in her room at night and cried
she put her hand up to the mirror
she couldnt see past the hurt in her eyes
Staying up late at night
she hoped someone would call
but she stared at the phone cord
disconnected from the wall
what is on the inside
she said, that supposedly counts
but she tried to make herself beautiful
.... on several different accounts.
She sat in silence observing everything
she watched you watch you watch me
she picked apart every situation
she wanted to know how far she could see
she is trapped inside her own mind
wanting to get out
she is inside out and padlocked
but her vocal chords have been cut out...
She?ll never escape.

you pretty much illuminated a lot of us with that line. i feel this way about myself much of the time; i look in the mirror and all i see is sadness in my eyes, and i wonder how others dont. i guess a smile shines brighter than an inner glow sometimes.
this girl you write about could very well be any one of us. its sad.

Yeah. I worte something to this effect about a silent prison that holds us still, but I think I've lost it.
This was really good I think everyone can realte to it on some level. Thanx.
 
i love this peom but hate it at the same time because it is all too true in my life, it sucks being trapped exspecially in ones own personal hell..the mind
