THE PRISONER IN GRADE SCHOOL

She feels rejected, unloved, and unwanted. She feels like she's being punished for something. She has parents that are divorced and she loves them very much. She wants to be with them more than living. The fantasy of her family being together again is her only happiness. She cries a lot and prays to her God a lot. For three long years she clung to the fence while serving her time. Her only crime was having no one who cared enough to parole her into loving arms and out of the orphanage. She's no longer a child but she still feels the presence of the fence. Her hands are clinging, clinging to the fear within. But like then no one hears her because the fear inside her is tearing at her, destroying her. Like then there is no key to the gate.
