The glass is thick.
A silent barrier
Unseen by everyone.
Un-noticed
Strange happenings
- benind the glass
A dissimilar person
Different
Trying to be similar
to those on the other side
desperately fighting a loosing battle
if you loose you die
People have noticed
the unlike one
some turn their back,
some wave,
some flee
The waving ones -
some are cruel
some are kind
some become friends while the rest shun
the friendly ones -
talk
discuss
decide
but no-one knows the answers
no-one can remove the glass
gradually they loose interest
gradually they disperse
leaving only the one behind the glass
and the cycle repeats again
then one day
a new person comes
outwardly no different
but he is a knight
he has the key to the glass
as the glass fades
through the mist
she steps out
to remove others
from other glass prisons
and to free the life
and continue the quest.
