I sit here,
gazing out of
my window.

The forest surrounds me
on either side
and though
the birds sing,
and all seems peaceful,
I cannot
join my voice
with theirs.

When I agreed
(albeit, unconsciously
and silently)
to live away
from the rest
of the world,
I did not anticipate
that my hair
would be cut short
and I would be left
with nothing but
my embroidery,
a chamber pot
and a daily supply
of food.

The only way
out of here
is to jump,
and hope
I grow some wings.

A great twist on Rapunzel - very nice job!
Thank you. It was a conceit for how we as human beings really need to take the risk sometimes and step outside our comfort zones that we have placed ourselves in. :)
