Prisoner

I sabotage my happiness
with every chance I get
I wollow in my sadness
my fears and my regrets 

I beg for love to claim me
but I am fearful of its strenght
I stop to smell the flowers
but soon forget their scent

I ache for new adventure 
but make no move to progress
I dream of all that could be 
but I am un-inspired yet

I have made myself a prisoner 
in a cell that's dull and bleak
I view the world through Iron bars
as I sit and rot and weep

Richard Lamoureux Date: 8/11/2014 10:11:00 AM This is very very moving. You have talent. Have a read through to edit, there are a few small errors which can easily be rectified. ie: strength, make no move, that's. The piece is so good you don't want distractions to sidetrack your readers.
