Literature Text

Once my friend, now my enemy...
You betray me at every turn,
holding me accountable for every
thought that comes to mind,
every feeling that passes through
this deep dungeon that is my soul.

Never allowing a second to pass
without your probing inquiry
into my heart.  You hold me captive,
flesh torn by your tight restraints.
You force my pen to paper,
spilling truth as black as the ink
that bleeds through the lines.

You infiltrate my tear ducts,
causing wetness to drench my
cheeks, when all I want to do
is hide you from the world.  I
look through the bars, waiting
for redemption that never comes.

So I will remain here in your
clutches, my constant, selfish
companion, who enjoys every
minute that you can torture me
into submission and place me
into your solitary cell, where
I must face the darkness.
From you...I will never be free.
My emotions rule me...and they are not always my friend, more than often they prove to be my enemy.
