Question: Can you please read this!? it's for school!.!.!.!?

I dwell within a judging gaze
Where only silence plagues my days

Silence now is but a cage
Inside I'm trapped, with burning rage!.

I cannot scream, nor pick the lock
For I'm a bird without a flock

And now the moon shall never beam
Without nightmares from a dream

No one here to set me free
I'm in a prison, can't they see!?

At the glue between my lips, I pry!.
A torment caused by being shy!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

What do you have to do for this assignment, just tell what the poem is!. Anyway, here is what i think the analyzing would be:

I think the poet here is talking of what he/she experiences because of being shy!. They feel like they are judged by others and since they are shy, they don't say anything about what the judgement is or what others are thinking or saying or even doing to them/about them!. Its a feeling of being trapped, they can't scream, cry, ask for help!. They feel like no one can help them, because no one can understand what they are experiencing, what is happening to them is unknown to others!. Others don't see the frustration and anger that they feel, and maybe others think that they should have no problems and should be a to change themselves and improve etc!. But they are shy, they are afraid to talk or act and therefore, are not able to even show their frustration, not able to express their anger, meaning their true feelings, they are not able to express them!. They wish that they could, but they feel trapped!. They feel like they themselves have not power over them to be able to talk or say what they want to do!.

They feel like they are in a prison, locked and no one can understand the state they are in and no one can see that they are a prisoner, not a free person, and since no one can see that they don't try to help them escape this state, but rather leave them there to tend to themselves!. They are alone, people may think they are arrogant and don't want to be friends with them for example!.

In short, they feel trapped in this state, a state that only they see, feel and no one else is there to see it and no one else is there to help them!. And they wish that this horrible dream will end and they can be out of this state but they are not able to do that!. And therefore, they are tormented by it!.

Its like the true self is lock inside and the other self is what is being seen by others, like Dr Jekyll and Hide!.

Theme is the frustration and anger someone feels when they are not understood and when their true self, who they really are is not seen by others and they are not able to show it to others!. Just the feeling of being lost you feel!.

I hope this helped!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
