Brenda Chiri Poet Rhyme

Out of Control

Wore her heart upon her sleeve
Her pain behind a smile
Hoped that pain would leave
Seems it only would beguile

How life had become a chore
Bowed down to the shame
Forgot what true love was for
Again she would taste the blame

Wished for a love that's true
Yet just being fed hurtful lies
Bit off more than she could chew 
To choke upon her soft sighs

Darkness became her reality  
Felt she had lost her very soul
No longer held rationality 
While life spun out of control
