Hey,

I’m new with this… but let me know what you think 🙂

I wrote this in 1 class period, so it obviously needs work…

Wherever I go,

4 corners follow me

No matter how fast I run,

they stick at my feet

1 corner traps me,

so that its impossible to escape

And I can’t help but sit there,

staring at the white walls.

1 corner hides me,

from everyone outside

And I can’t help but wonder,

whats going on around me.

1 corner guides me,

paves out my path

And I can’t help but think,

where I’ll be next.

1 corner protects me,

from the world I live in

And I can’t help but bang,

praying someone will hear me.

4 croners.

One to trap

One to hide

One to guide

One to protect.

But what about doors?

So that I can escape,

when I feel trapped.

So that I can really hide,

not behind walls.

So that i can learn,

to guide myself at times.

I don’t need 4 corners,

in order to be protected.

What I need are some doors,

next to each corner.
