Window

Hidden away,

No one will know.

Unwillingly locked up,

Look out the window.

What do you see?

Out the window to high.

I see peace and laughter,

I see birds free to fly.

It's out of my reach,

But it's in my sight,

Taunting and teasing,

It just isn't right.

One day I will get there,

One day I'll be free.

You see all those people?

That will be me.

Time is my obstacle,

While life passes me by,

Just waiting and watching,

From my window so high.

Hidden away,

No one did know,

Unwillingly locked up,

I saw out the window.
