ghettos of their minds

 

some people are living

in ghetto

of their mind

afraid

that someone might discover

who they really are

so they hiding

from the wordl

building walls and tall fences

heavy courtains covers their windows

to be away from sight and sun

they limiting themselves

in drinking

thinking

speaking

feeling

makin' fun

makin' love

they waste time searching for a right mask

for every possible opportunity

their lifes

are passing them by

days like minuts runnig away very fast

and

one day they will find out

they are so badly alone

The content of this poem makes me think of all the lonely people out there. So many lifes wasted, missed opportunities and friendships lost in advance. Another great poem, full of spot on images!
I do not know whether you are thinking in English or in Polish when you are writing, but every time you are getting better, apart from some small typing errors and one articles.
Please keep on writing, the content of your poems is much more important than the grammar. I just cannot help myself pointing out little mistakes, because they would make your work even better!

This is an absolutely wonderful piece about such a deep truth.
What will society think of me? - what will the neighbors say? - ...

I think all those many masks most people are wearing is what makes people ill - and makes the soul suffer ...

Thumb up! - Great job!
