Yet.
I'm locked up in a cage,
The key is right in front of my face.
Yet,
I cannot see it.
I'm hungry and need food,
The bread is by my side.
Yet,
I cannot reach it.
My friend needs a helping hand,
I am near her.
Yet,
It seems as if my hands do not exist.
I am cold,
A fire is a few feet away.
Yet,
I do not go toward it.
I want to listen,
A voice is calling.
Yet,
I cannot hear it.
