Rapunzel.
Snatched away, Trapped up high
Neither reaching ground nor the sky
The brick walls that surround me either side,
are the only things that listen when I have cried.
The only window, I let my golden hair fall
as it shimmers in the welcoming sun, against the ivy wall.
By the windowsill I let my musical voice flow and soar
In hope that my voice will reach someones door.
I wait alone brushing my wavy mile long locks,
waiting to hear that spell breaking knock
The knock that signals my cries of plea and dread had been heard
but instead has been often mistaken for a flying bird
As I feel the hope inside me wither away,
another night in this tower I must stay.
