Trapped

I wrote this one on 12/03/10 and posted it, but later deleted it. Think it needs to be here, though.

The iron bars slam closed

And she knows she's lost her last chance...

Escape will never come.

It was almost in her grasp,

Or so she thought,

But it was nothing but illusion.

Now she'll smile and go through the motions

Living "the perfect life"

Till she finds the way to make her final exit.
