The pale face hides throbbing desires,
which seeks escape and freedom
to the other world
The cast down eyes dreads looking up
for the fear of its unappreciated dreams
disappearing in the world’s chaos
The limbs aching to get away
from the prison of monotony
to a land of tolerance and acceptance
this is a good depiction how the physical world is cruel and everyone just wants to escape from it…nicely written! 🙂

Hi Sharmishta, Thank you for the comment and for liking my username:)))
I wonder if this poem speaks of children who don’t fit in or feel insecure in the harsh world at times… very excellent work nightlake ~ enjoyed!
true..innovation is not encouraged, different thoughts are scorned upon..It also fits with the adult world, I suppose
