Gently leaning against the window pane
The foggy glass shows little of the outside world
The pain to much to take as she watches the snow fall quietly to the ground
She reaches out, but only cold glass meets her hopeful fingers
Her faded blue eyes close and she pulls away her hand from her barrier that guards her from the rest of the world
Crystals of water fall down the window, mimicing the tears falling down the young girls face
Her hands clench her shirt as her heart feels as if it has ripped open
Life was so empty inside these walls
Never allowed to go outside
Where there was rain, sunshine, and fresh air
Not allowed near freedom
Held captive by her own mind, not able to escape the hollow darkness that holds her to where she sits
Chains of spikes piercing her arms and legs until she bleeds out all yearning of freedom
Her gaze is held by the shimmer of the snow flakes against the dimly lit sun
Tears continue to roll silently down her pale cheeks, all color drained from being in that room
Her own world wanted to capture her, and whisper words of hatred for freedom
The world that held only darkness and pitch black corners
She reaches out desperatly for the world of color, afraid to be in the dark any longer
Can't stop the yearning inside her, the chains digging deeper into her, trying to force it out
Snow slips just beyond her reach as the darkness completely takes hold of her
Darkness is all she can see, and darkness is all she can feel
Her world of color, is gone forever
