Trapped behind these walls
Closed inside this room
Is a girl who has a secret
Leading to her tomb

Thoughts running through her mind
Pain racing through her veins
Gives her trouble through the night
As the sky begins to rain

These rooms has no windows
No air, she's suffocated
These rooms have no light
The intensity not yet rated

Trapped inside this world
With hearts burning cold
Dawn begins to break
The air brisk and bold

She opens her mouth to speak
You hear not yet a word
For its trapped behind these walls
Isn't it absurd?

&quot;The poet ranks far below the painter in the representation of visible things, and far below the musician in that of invisible things. Why does the eye see a thing more clearly in dreams than the imagination when awake?,&quot;Leonardo da Vinci.

I like how you pool the reader into it by asking the question last- makes them feel what you've just said, to take it in. I like how you tell us about her and not give direct details.
