No one sees the bars when the jailer is your mind.

Who do you petition for freedom?

How do you escape the confinement of a space that is with you always?

Even when you appear to be free.

It is critical of you, more than most.

Then claims to be your key to freedom.

Solitary confinement – when all you want to be is free

Locked away with just your thoughts

Escape or release may never be.

Trapped in the prison of your mind.
