Locked!
Locked!
Sealed inside a heart of stone
Behind doors barred, chained, deadbolted.

Locked!
Opportunities missed out
Fearful of lasting damage wrought.

Locked!
Flames spread all too rapidly
Burning down lifetimes of effort.

Locked!
Insanity's mercy plea
Echoes unheard from dungeon floor.

Unlocked!
Freedom bursts all barriers
Shining truth's light as shadows fade.


15 lines, 52 words.
Unrhymed verses with a 1-7-8 syllable count.
