Trapped

I don't want to be here. This place tortures me. My heart is heavy and in so much pain. How can I reach you? You own my heart. My dreams are no longer pleasant. How can I reach you? As long as I'm not free to love you. I live in pain and agony. As long you're there and I'm here. I live in torment. Tormented by a love that's no longer mines. For I'm trapped in the memory of yester- year. 2-3-16

This is a masterpiece, Alexis! True raw emotion like a laser beam, so focused ... the intensity burns into the reader's psyche. You leave a lasting impression of pathos w/this gemstone of a poem. An instant fave. Top notch 10! Love and peace to you, dear. Have a Merry Christmas and New Year.
