Invisible...

Surrounded by brick. Fake stone.
I feel fake myself, sitting inside,
Hidden from sunshine.

I wish to demolish these walls,
Knock away solid barriers.
Invisible barriers remain.

I wish to be outside, yet protected.
I cannot be open, for then I can be hurt.
Vulnerable. Alone.

I want to feel the breeze in my hair
On the hills, by wave-torn shores.
Freedom in safety.

I sit here and dream,
Watching junk TV from my old sofa.
Dream of a future.
