Kidnapped

My aching eyes masked by a single piece of prickly fabric Encircled by a strange yet familiar smell My stiff arms were immovable, as were my numb legs as I sat upright in a supposed chair wrapped up in more itchy material Hearing faint footsteps of squeaky shoes echoing A room I was entrapped in Paper was been shuffled and crunched Detecting urgency in this person’s hastened actions as the footsteps approached getting louder with each step I felt my bare toes move on the soft pavement below me, where my feet were also bound I felt my heart beat accelerate There was no escape

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
