Notes About The Poem

- Please Let Me Out -

The feeling of being trapped with an unknown
Maybe a very hungry polar bear
or a greedy wolf ...  the beasts bites

A tragic view where people pass by all the time
See me, hear me ...
come in to me and touch me
Let me live my life

A round room with a constant snow storm
My body and brain block everything around me
creating a vicious bubble
Like being locked up in a prison
I am a restless soul groping in the blind

"Hello ... is anyone here? .... H.E.L.L.O"
- behind the glitter of this secluded place in no man's land
"Let me out ... Please ... Let me O.U.T"!
I want to go home to my family for Christmas

Longing for freedom
Freedom without glass walls

Chris Green Date: 11/20/2019 1:47:00 PM This was fun and fantastic my friend. I don't think being trapped in one of those thing would be anything I'd want to experience.
