Edward Ibeh Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Confined

Languishing inside a cell(his demons) so fierce
        and punishing; isolating loneliness pierce
          the core of his misery. Every so often,
      he feels claustrophobic, as if inside a coffin.

Carolyn Devonshire August 6, 2020 at 2:39 PM Wow! Excellent writing, Edward. Especially liked the reference to feeling like you are in a "coffin." Isolation does make us feel that way! Best wishes in the contest. Hugs, Carolyn Edward Ibeh August 6, 2020 at 3:06 PM Thank you so much, Carolyn:-) Blessings to you! xoxo
