Trapped

by MyHalozChokinMe   Sep 30, 2012


My body is trapped in this mind

I try to break free, with fragile arms

No match for the burden of

This madness, sadness

That is heavy

So

Heavy

My mind is trapped in this body

Stagnant thoughts long to break out

To be strong, to step off this painful record

that just won't

Stop

Spinning

My song is trapped in this mind

Why now does it just sound

Like noise, static. It screeches,

Incessantly, urgently.

Where is

My

Voice?

My love is trapped in this body

Somewhere, hiding, beneath this

Cold, callous shell. Oh, it's real -

Delicate, vulnerable, and trapped

So

Trapped.

    OMG!!

    Ok first thing about this poem which is only my eye's view and probably no one elses but it came straight to my head at the end of this. For me the shape is like love hearts. It is like seperate heart shapes and then the end is like your heart in a shell, which is exactly what the stanza is about!

    Such a powerful poem, I truly get these emotions and thank you for expressing them so clearly.

    I feel like I don't hae to write anymore because someone else is taking my emotions and writing them for me... its great lol xx

    Another thing about this poem is the beat it had to it, it holds a flow like a song, some small repitition in the background while the main lyrics are being sung. I could honestly picture this being turned into a song.
