Andrea Storrier Poet Rhyme

Locked In My Mind

His cold dark hands grip around my heart
Squeezing and squeezing, pulling me apart
I spend every passing day in this cruel hell
No longer a girl, just an empty shell.
The whispers follow me everywhere I go 
Talking about things they don't even know
The legends, the rumors, none of them are true
Yet they seem to be real to only but a few.
He takes their words and strikes me with them 
Treating me like im a broken, worthless gem
He locks me in my mind and throws away the key
Never again will I ever be free
His sick, twisted grin lights up in the dark
As this broken soul looses her spark
So well done Anxiety, take a bow
You have broken this girl
Nobody can save her now.

Line Gauthier January 7, 2018 at 9:03 PM What a powerful poem. Fabulous winner. So tragic that getting help seldom seems like an option.

John Hamilton November 15, 2017 at 9:21 PM Wow I hope not Andrea this is tragic, hopefully it's just a poem not your reality. Really well written strikes close to home for me, here's hoping no one else has to go through this! Andrea Storrier November 16, 2017 at 11:24 AM Thanks, Gladly this hasn't happened to me but I have a close friend who struggles with anxiety and she inspired me to write it.
