Prisoner

Prisoner

A Poem by Liz Alexander

I am a prisoner of my life

The walls of my house

Is my cells

My brothers are the guards

The ward is my mother

Telling what to do

Or not to do

Days will go on

My tears are not heard

The guards lash

Only for a few hours

Can I escape my prison cell

In the the world

Where they reconize my face

My face is on wanted posters

In peoples mind

NO one cares

What I say

I am never free

Since I live in my life

Which I am the prisoner

In time you shall be free. I have a fourteen year old daughter. I gave her a cell phone and want to know where she is. When you get older you will be free. Please be careful. Life has many bad people and difficult roads to get over. Love is a difficult thing. We want to protect our family. A very good poem. We can feel
like prisoners.

A very powerful expression of a common feeling. Everything I thought has been said by the reviwers before me, so I'm going to suggest some corrections:

The walls of my house
Is my cells
Is should be "are"

Since I live in my life
Which I am the prisoner

Should be
Since I live in my life
IN Which I am the prisoner
