Four white walls conceal me
the door is always locked
I have no way out of here
I am alone in this room
I lay on the floor and imagine
the stars above me, the grass below
the smell of summer filling the air
it's all gone now
those days were before
the days of freedom
now I can only imagine the past
where people were near by
instead of this room
slowly going out of my mind
I wish I could go back
but now it's all gone and in the past
About the poem: I wrote this as someone stuck inside a prison or some sort of place they won't get out of anytime soon. I decided to write about how much this person misses the outside world and how they regret what happened. The rest is up to the reader.

Hi. My Name is Dana and I am 18. I love writing. I mainly enjoy writing things that are emotionally strong and so I tend to lean more towards Poetry. I post most of my poems on Wattpad or instagram but I wanted to do more with it.
