The Asylum
July 21, 2011
Beyond these plain white walls
is a world I long to see
To be free and run
but they keep me in this place
to rot and waste away
To give me pills and isolate me
When will I be cured, to say,
when can leave this place?

Wow, this is really good! I especially liked the last three lines of the poem, because I can relate to feeling "sick", different, isolated, and alone. Keep writing :)
