House of Glass

By Gemini2012

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I'm locked inside this house of glass, But it will not break, I watch the others walk on by, It's what my heart won't take, The glass is slowly cutting, What inside I hold so dear, It wants me to join, What has shaken my cold fear, The glass makes my bones chill, It makes my whole world fall, In in this house of glass, IT slowly breaks my all, The glass slits my heart, It slits my shaken love, It makes my feel so lonely, It let loss my dove, The glass made me see the truth, Hidden under my skin, And in the brim of all your hope, There's no way we can win.
