Trapped

Reaching for the door of opportunity
to find freedom
and break free.
The air is stale,
It is suffocating.
The 6 walls around me
Leave me in an enclosed cube.
I’m trapped!
The feeling that a Giant
like Goliath
Stands 6 feet tall
before me is prominent.
My flesh, weak and frail
Held together by ligaments of fear
Gives in, crumbling under the pressure
Of this challenge.
A giant within and a mountain before me –
An enclosure that needs a big God
To expose me.

This poem was talks about being trapped, not only physically in a house or something but being trapped by your thoughts and memories.It's when you keep remembering the things you want to forget that makes you feel trapped!

I think this template is fabulous, and if it is too much work to manage two different blogs I say you can update here more than on the other one.

I like this poem: do you know that sometimes we trap ourselves in a box of our own emotions, when nothing demands it? We create our own Goliaths and build up our own prisons...we create fables even before the real ones appear...

@ Daring- Thank you

@ Jaycee- yes indeed,we do trap ourselves in our box of emotions..that's when we let fear take over and put faith in the back seat!
...and thnx for the piece of advice, i think i'll do just that.

Thnx for stoppin by!

I love the template.
The poem's touching,but impossibilities are the easiest things for God to solve. Thanks for sharing.

"Christ has set us free ..." - would be good for you and me. But from His side "Christ has set us free in freedom."

@ lindah- thanx, and u're right.. impossiblities become possibilities with God!

@ David C Brown- couldn't say it better! thanx for stopping by mine.

This is really creative. I feel this is me. Well, I actually feel this way sometimes. Sounds like the voice of someone trying to break free from the uneccessary wall they have created for themself.
