Rue

Rage of potential writhes
                      Rears its demented face
                      Relegates a locked life
                      Region inhibits space
                      Respite from rejection 
                      Regret's dull reflection 
                      Renders welded gate

Wow, this is so dark and reflective, love the line 'regret's dull reflection' - shows how low and futile regret can make you feel, excellent contest entry, Sigrid~
