Trapped

My very first poem, written about a week ago.

I accept you in open arms

I care not where I go

As long as you take me

I will travel with you,

wherever the wind blows

I welcome you into my life

Do as you please

Alleviate my pains and sorrows

with relative ease.

They tell me to stay away

but it's so inviting.

Take my breath away

there will be no denying.

I march to the highest peal

for you, where I could and wait

But you don't arrive

you tricked me, led me with bait

I'm left without strength

And you, a nice laugh

you deceived and worried me

my courage, as weak as glass

oh death, I played your games

And now I'm left here

for you to beat me again

until my time is near.
