Prisoner of "Love"

This love he had for her, became toxic..

Poisoning her heart, with each kiss

He offers her always and forever...

A ring placed upon her fingers.

With time,

what once glittered as gold

grew dull and cold

This ring was heavy

     She's become stagnant as it weighed her down. Chained to the bed that he provides for her__back.

To unleash his lust

          his filthy pleasures.

When he demands it

She just lays there

Eyes empty yet filled

Isolated yet surrounded

By similar faces

They, are just as bad as the warden

 mere reflections of him outwardly

She spends all her days in her cell

I DOS took away dreams of yesterday

Everyday now is routine

Locked away

Just left to dream

She counts sheep

Children's laughter echoes

    In her mind

The sounds of keys

Hit against the locks

    "He's back"..

She hurriedly wipes her eyes.
