Beyond the Window
Beyond the Window lies the cool distant world that I once knew...
Now, it seems as though it is so close, but at the same time it is so far away...
I remember the days of running carelessly in the open fields...
Now, I am confined to merely viewing it from a window...
Day to day it is a struggle to raise the blinds and see the world...
I wish that I could be in total control so as to again feel the freedom of my past...
Week by week a distant thought lingers within...
One day, one day it will return to me...
One day (doesn't sound that bad does it?)...
But what if that "one day" failed to arrive???
Would I forever be glued to my window?
Would I be forced to revisit the days of old within my mind?
Or would I be pulled to simply give up, and give in?!
The human heart longs for acceptance and love's affectionate touch...
Will these ever again be my reality?
Or will I forever look out of my window, my window to the world?
--this just came to me as I was sitting here...
