Inconceivable EscapeA Poem by LeewriterWho is your worst enemy? Who or what is stopping you from reaching your goal?I am surely captured, bound tightly with
no hopes of escape to save my life, riddled with scars ran deep with actions
that cut and sever sharp as a jagged-edged knife. When did this happen? So
unaware I must have been. Visions of pleasure and of course, money would filter
in. Concealing the clarity desperately needed to avoid the sin, which is
controlling, barring the way to freedom; a place I’ve heard of but yet have
never been. This is hell. Every day I live here on this earth. Is my life my
own? Or was it sold the day of my birth? Like a bad dream I scream without
presence of sound. I run ever faster, but movement as well as scene is in slow
motion, as I can never seem to gain any ground. My
situation starts to get to me, although my efforts do not reflect the concern.
This muddy field in which I walk is redundant, even shameful to bear; a lesson
of choices in this place seems inconceivable to learn. This person has me and
is not willing to let me go. How can I survive? How will I ever know? This
person is consistent and seems to know my every move; cunning and methodical,
and unwilling to lose. My
life is not my own. I feel it never was. How to break free is the question I
ask to the heavens above. But without an answer or a sign, I find myself alone
and running out of time, as my concerns grow stronger. How can I save this life
in time? Another day passes. Yes I’m still here; my eyes grow swollen, reddened
from my tears. I fear it is hopeless, this escape I so desperately need, as
this person on my integrity continues to feed. Why
is this so hard? There must be a way, although I’ve tried before. I continue to
pray. Give me the strength, the strength to overcome this person who controls
me, who holds me captive to the needs which only this person shows me. I am not
a slave, although I feel like one. This is not a life I would wish on anyone.
The sun continues to shine, perhaps just not for me. Although it may be bright
outside it’s growing very hard to see. I try to reason with this person who
holds me, but it is just a waste of time. Although this person feels the pain,
still pays me no mind. Why
must you be this way? As I plead looking deep into eyes, not a word is spoken,
always with no reply. I try again to get free, but I am pulled right back in.
This is shameful and life-threatening to all men. I do know what is right,
although I am very muddy from the fields. I am infected, but long for freedom I
do still. Nevertheless, I am being held tightly, my life is controlled, forcing
me to continue on this path that can realistically leave me pale and cold. My
body and spirit start to break down; I can’t think clearly. No longer is there
any firm ground. How much more can I take? I fear not much more. My heartbeat
is weak; my whole body is numb and so very sore. I’ve done all I can to defeat
this person, this enemy. I know by now you must know is ME. As I stare in the
mirror at my captor, how could this be? But no longer does it matter; I cannot
run and hide from myself. There is no way I can. I am human, just an imperfect
man. I am my worst enemy. How will I find the way? Creator of my own fate. How
to save myself, from my self"My Inconceivable Escape!!!...... LeeWriter © 2015 LeewriterAuthor's Note
