Locked Up...

Locked Up...

A Poem by Monique Jackson
"

Emotions make you too weak sometimes...

"

Within my mind

The memories it confines

Feels like my sanity's been compromised

Emptiness resides

Construing elapsed times 

Unable to withhold the internal cries

So, how do I define?

Erased images left behind

A displaced reality finding a place to hide

Losing all pride 

Absolute mental homicide

No more energy left to provide

Escaped inside

Breaking souls tied

Another day left to emotionally die

My unexpected surprise

Showed me that love could still reside

In a heart where I thought love again would never lie

How can I rely?

On the memories I denied

When all I posses is this heartache locked in time….
