Invisible Prison

Burdens carried
Beyond the brink
Kept so closely
They start to stink

Baskets of bullies
Criticizing the weak

Worried and tired
It's hard to think
Of better occurences
Careless and free

To have seen freedom
That is not out of reach

Mimicking moments
Hidden in time
Lapsed in an instant
In the minds eye

Enjoying the present
Without a image rewind
Becomes increasingly
Harder to find

Sulking in anger
It finds no reward
It only recovers
A painful escort

Torn by the past
Escaping the truth
Bent up and broken
Just can't seem to move

Blinded by obsolete mind set

You've outworn your chains well
Locked up in this solitary cell

Spelling out  B-O-N-D-A-G-E
Do you enjoy this rampart hell ?

In it's stead ring the bell
Sounding out H-E-L-P !

The bondage that we hold within ourselves is different for each person. I hope we are able to get out one day thru strength and courage. How beautiful the rhyme is in this poem yet at the same time the stanza format keeps you sunk in until the end great poem.

This piece is simply enjoyable. I love the rhyme, the style and the message. Cheers!

Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.
