A display of isolation,
heartfelt but seemingly dead inside,
scared and somewhat hopeless
some will think
Possibilities of all kinds
can smash to the floor,
if underneath Cinderella shatters the glass
to be free
to be touched
to be heard
like she always had been
Bullet proof glass
creates a coward

bullet proof...
Well written poet! You have the skill to evoke some very effective imagery. Your word choices are good and quite descriptive!
Well done!

Interesting approach... can you elaborate on the message for me? I think I understand the gist, but I wanna see your viewpoint in writing this please
Good luck.

well basically i chose the option of where you should let your walls down to others for a reason that we give. mine mostly is general, i dont have a specific reason as to why you should let it down and be open to others. generally, i feel that the "glass" i write of in this piece represents the wall and it's up to you to shatter it and become more than just a figurine behind the glass. there would be many, great possibilities by doing so. even bad life experiences will come your way, but that's life. and no matter how much love and trust we give, at least we are living and loving.
