A World Unexplored

Every day a world unexplored Because of the invisible chains holding her hostage, Away from anything she could have wanted. A revolving world of ecstasy But still a world of her demise “What if there were no people?” All of the other people Mocked her views of universes unexplored Leading to their early demise. All the ideas held hostage Giving her a false sense of ecstasy “What if there was no want?” Everything she could have wanted Was not the fraternity of other people But the fraternity of the ecstasy Taking her to another world unexplored She never thought herself a hostage “What if there were no demises?” She had heard of others' demises Because of their greediness, they wanted Too much and bound themselves hostage To something that wasn't even a person But an angel’s pill, unexplored “What if there was no ecstasy?” Her constructed world would collapse without the ecstasy She’d probably slash her wrists instead of a slow demise Because the dealer forgot. Writing a world unexplored Doesn’t help. Already she’s tight on money, so she gave what he wanted, Herself, in an alley away from other people. “What if there were no hostages?” What if? She was always his hostage From the moment he forced the first ecstasy Pill down her throat. Now, isolated from other people, Let her early demise Answer the questions she needed to know! This she truly wanted: “What if there was no world unexplored?” So many people have left her worlds unexplored Just a hostage, don’t tell her of her imminent demise From the pills of ecstasy, all she ever wanted

Cheers, J. I like this a lot. (And I think there are always unexplored worlds, or at least places where we don't know if there are worlds or not.) Hard to explain no comments and 196 views - but sometimes you'll have that. Fear not....

A world unexplored is a loss to humanity... I know. People hate commenting. Cheers! ~Blue
