In this tower you lock away in pain
There's sunlight from that window
Enough to keep your heart alive
There's a mountain beyond this tower
You lock yourself away in
Open your eyes, your heart to the life
Beyond this desolate plain
Little Princess, why are you crying?
There's nothing holding you back
Don't fall with Icarus, soar on your own idea
Escape the danger you've flown into
This won first place in the June 2006 poetry contest.
