Why is it said that the worst punishment is to be trapped and confined?
Try being free
But feeling trapped

Imagine having a voice
With no one to hear it

Imagine having thoughts
With no one to listen to them

Imagine having a hand
With no one to hold it

Try being among a thousand people
But feeling alone

Try running in open plains
But feeling boxed in

Try having emotions
But no one to understand how you show them

Picture craving human touch
But fearing the contact

Picture desiring to live an adventure
But feeling pain from loud sounds alone

Picture longing to share your wonderments with
But having no way for them to understand the way you see things

Envision avoiding loneliness
By creating friends of your own

Envision avoiding feeling frightened
By going on adventures in books

Then envision realizing that all your adventures and friends
Can’t help you in the real world that they are all just for nothing

So after imagining all of this
Realize that the whole time you have been free
So is entrapment and confinement truly the worst punishment
Or is there a punishment greater?
