He knows he is a slaveÂ
to the daily grind.
It’s the one thing,
that never leaves his mind.

Asmiya S
Â
I just keep on working and was
Blinded about the real thingÂ
My real self caught in a string
Can’t free myselfÂ
from that peril ring.Â
Â

Tina Potter
Â
Trapped withinÂ
the mind.
Â

Vyvienne Chamberlain
Â
Trapped in his worldÂ
of toil and strife,Â
a prison of thoughtsÂ
and feelings of life,Â
when will he knowÂ
what others can see,Â
to squeeze through the barsÂ
and set himself free? Â
Â

Say Keng Lee
Â
The toughest prisonÂ
to escape is in your mind.
Â

Rinku ShahÂ
Â
The voice in me
Is yelling to set it free.
All day at the keyboard,
It screams ‘I’m bored!’
Let’s unplug and go out,
Have some fun and shout!Â
Â

Anubha SharmaÂ
Â
Failing to realize the importanceÂ
of work life balance,
All our lives, we work like a gallant;
The imprisoned subconscious yearnsÂ
to break the barrier,Â
It’s imperative to give your own self,Â
precedence over your career Â
Â

Anindya J GangulyÂ
Â
Caged in a Cloistered CellÂ
I breathe in a Social Cell
Through my sunburn glasses,Â
I procrastinateÂ
gloating in my soft winterÂ
Of a monotone Gale. Â
Â

Nirekshitha Kunder
Â
Captive in an anxious prison,Â
Life gives me no reason,Â
As I pen this, everything is confusion,Â
Except the certaintyÂ
that eternal night has dawned,Â
The light in me has gone!!
Â

Bhaumik DaveÂ
Â
Bars have grownÂ
with lack of choice created artificially,Â
pay is a mercy and
a favor the helplessness of labourÂ
where abortion of freedomÂ
is the right of the master.
Â

Rinku Shah
Â
Mind talk:
I shout, I scream…
Freedom is my dream.
You sit glued and type,
Ignoring my gripe.
You need to unwind,
And give rest to your mind!Â
Â

Deborah Poff
Â
We stifle our inner selfÂ
from being free
Â

Rinku ShahÂ
Â
Prisoner of the screenÂ
can’t hear the inmate scream
Â

Debra Pry
Â
You can neverÂ
escape yourself.
Â

Denton Linke
Â
Your mind has the powerÂ
to trap you and the capacityÂ
to set you FREE!

in your own Reality
