Prisoner

These doleful words that you will encounter

Are for my beloved insensitive souls to devour

I didn’t volunteer for this nightmare

No one wants to be in a dark lair

This frigid soul just wants a pinch of your warmth

To be caught by your treacherous arms

You got me but with a slack heart

I’m indecisive and you’re inconsistent,

what a perfect match we are!

Can someone give me a potion?

To forget this petty emotion

To be free from this prison,

Grant me my extradition

    I know right?! If only it was that easy- to drink a magic potion and then be free. Well put Nicole ☺. I love the wordings with metaphors about being imprisoned and seeking extradition.

  4. I would like to know what inspired you to write this?
    The prison that you describe may mean many types of ‘freedom takers’. It would be interesting to know what exactly this prison is.

    1. The prison is a person, someone I loved from the past, that I need to break free from…
