In this poem, I express the emptiness I feel despite being surrounded by wealth. The world outside is so free and vibrant, but I sit here trapped in "shadows made of gold," longing for true joy. The luxury around me feels like a beautiful cage, masking my deeper need for laughter, light, and a life without fear. I realize that happiness can't thrive where the spirit feels confined, and I'm torn between the comfort of this life and the yearning to break free. This inner conflict leaves me questioning if I have the courage to seek the freedom I crave.
