Trapped

A Poem by J.O.


Trapped

-J.O.


Beauty obscured by savage lies.

Truth is a delicacy.

Never tasted.

Lies protect.

Building a wall.

Each brick laid with heartache.

Hiding reality.

A damaged soul.

Broken.

The world shut out.

Love forsaken.

Waves of rage swell,

Consuming all.

What a price to pay,

for nothing gained.

Darkness ensues.

Drowning the mind,

memories forced out.

Eyes glaze over.

The world passing by.

Unnoticed.

Unappreciated.

Once so vibrant,

now colorless.

Forever trapped.
