Behind A Glass Wall Poem by Nicole Brewer

This is mine, I wrote it, no stealing

The music flows around her,

in this small container

But It's not a room.

Its a box,

One side glass.

And as music flows around her,

She sees people looking in,

Observing,

Judging,

And glaring

at a girl stuck in a box,

music too high to even think,

and Isolated

only to be seen by others

But there's one boy,

Who peers past the glass,

And looks into her eyes,

Staring into her very being.

And understands.

Yet the boy is just like the others.

and walks away,

Leaving this girl alone

Only to see him turn away,

and not to be able to say anything,

because she's trapped...

Behind a glass wall.
