About this poem
This poem is about a person who feels helpless.It allows the reader to imagine watching everything in their life falling apart. You have no control of everything just like watching a movie.You can react but feel like you can not do anything about your life. Feeling helpless and like you are unable to do anything to change the circumstances of your life.
