Surrounded

Behind a sheet of glass, I watch as all the people that pass, Never notice me standing here, Lost in my own fear. Of being saved, And being helped, Who I will be when I get out of here, I’ve known far too many tears. The people seem so joyous, With the many smile’s that I see, It makes me wonder if I will smile again, Like I did before this tragedy. They give me hope, To help me believe, That I can make it out of this, All I hear is words, They have no meaning to me. Like how the rain falls, And causes such dread, Locked inside these walls, I’m going out of my head. I still remember that day, When she helped me get out, A sweet little child went out of her way, To knock on the glass.
