Outside the window I see beauty and light
The type of scene that brightens my world
But the thin sheet of glass separates me from what I most desire
From what's outside and can't be obtained not because no one can have it but because I can't receive it
Freedom
Inside, the house is a dark place filed with tears and suffering
I pray that today will be the day I leave
From the outside it looks as if I live in comfort
But inside I live in fear
Fear of being brought down
Fear of regret
Fear after fear
I fear so much that if there wasn't a window I would go mad
The struggle to survive inside is hard
Everything here drains your life away
There is so much darkness no one sees
There is so much suffering I cant think
But through a small opening in the back of the room a glass sheet shows me a better place to look forward too
This gives me strength to move on
And a bit of hope to look forward to
The window shows me the freedom I'll some day have
So all I do is stare out the window waiting for my time to come
Hopefully it will come soon
