Confinement
A girl sitting at her desk in a room
Four sided white squares
With papers everywhere
My life focused on nothing but work
Highlighted phrases and underlined words
A paper cup and paper plate beside me
Crumbs on my shirt that refuse to get off
Droplets of water on my jeans that refuse to evaporate
Just as I refuse to get out of my room
Friends invite me places
But I decline constantly
The never ending stacks of papers
The unaccomplished tasks due yesterday
There's a world out there that we should see
But "I" doesn't listen
As weeks pass by
Tired of the monotonous routine
"I" can't free herself
I'm stuck
There's a world out there that we should see
Maybe there's a world to see
Maybe I am missing out
In a part of my my life but,
I haven't found the key
To the shackles of my mind
