Cracked

Nothing is crueler than the need to satisfy man's inhumanity...The Poet My heart cracked when I saw you there those pained eyes with your empty stare the state of your life is a stain and will cause my tears to remain the air is a bottomless gray to breathe till' death and here you'll stay this zoo's small cage is not your choice you are dying, I won't rejoice If you could spread your wings you'd fly far above clouds, you'd reach so high sadness is that you'll never know the mountain tops covered in snow you're a Condor waiting to die you'll never glide high in the sky a prisoner who sits alone to never soar in the unknown 1/12/22 contest C form-couplet sponsor Constance La France chosen word-Cracked
