The poem “Feelings Caught” was inspired by a Tumblr meme that included the poem’s title. Firstly I find the slang to be poignant. Secondly, I’ve sworn myself off of the activity. Sometimes life has other plans.

Listen to poem:
Feelings caught become the trap
waiting for unwary saps
wishing something to address
the crush of sad loneliness
that need to put aside the shield
armor worn against the storms
rain combined with thunderbolts
puts up a shelter to console
these echoes matter little now
when the gulf between the souls
eternal silence becoming all
matters more than paling scars
still the snares may intrude
set with bait hung with hearts
this matters not when the void
is safety’s realm that none rejoice.
