She sits alone in her room,
Locked in solitude.
Hidden as if in a cocoon.
No one knows of her existence.

No one hears her silent cries---
There's no way they could.
With all the strength of the world, she tries
Tries to find an escape.

She's tried to find an escape for thirteen years
All attempts, and all tries of hers failed.
Yet, she has only one fear,
Her fear of losing everything.

Ooohh, I like this a lot It has some weird, mysterious rhythm to it, and it really draws me in. Well done. I really enjoyed this. I especially enjoyed that you rhymed in certain parts but not in others... very unstructured, but I like that in a poem.
