PrisonerA Poem by J.Controlled by one, reaching out for a saviourI think I may just die
In this abyss that pulls relentless at my feet Binding me with chains At the ankles, the wrists I have broken With blood seeping, left wounds deep However unlike my heart that screams And the anger causes me grief Toward my dark and cold warden Watching, waiting, unsatisfied Losing his grip he fears and lashes At my being within, with one thousand whips Each branded with control, and irate jealousy Searing open once again Every gaping cut he previously inflicted And still, with every fiber I pull away Yet he seizes what was never his After he threw it all away with his fist And hate-filled words I beg for release, to run toward open arms Whose eyes now hold back And whose heart beats still And mighty spirit pushes forward into a battle That begs to be ended swiftly and justly © 2011 J.Author's Note
