Renee Kelly Poet Free verse

Screaming, Lost, and Trapped

Trapped...
ensnared by the beautifully intricate
lies her mind created and presented
as gentle whispers of a god.

Lost...
the child who looks to her for
guidance, love and the man who must
stand by in confusion.

Screaming...
loudly with her actions and yet
those who mean the most are impotent
and allow her to go on.

Leo Larry Amadore May 22, 2011 at 10:54 AM Scary and graphic depiction of situations too often encountered...nicely turned descriptive phrases. Renee Kelly May 22, 2011 at 10:58 AM Thank you. This is in reference to someone I've had to deal with for nearly three years. She's obviously insane and no one around her seems to see it or has attempted to help. Scary stuff.
