Ricky Sholar Poet Light Verse

A Lost Soul Imprisoned

I am a lonely castaway
On an Island in the wind
I'm surfing on a cloud 
A prisoner locked within

I'm locked in a dark gray cell
The key it can't be found
Held captive, I'm imprisoned
In a world that knows no sound

People walk right passed me
Through these walls they can not see
Someday someone somewhere
Will finally rescue me

The insanity becomes horrendous
Appalling as it seems
This world in which detests me so
Will haunt my every dream

Will they ever find me
Tomorrow's another chance
A soul that's lost in some far cosmos
In some hypnotic trance

Somewhere someone will find you and hand over to you your key of happiness :) Ricky Sholar January 29, 2017 at 8:57 PM I really can't say for sure where this poem came from.
