Amanda Kinzer Poet Rhyme

Solitary Confinement

Written on December 13th, 2019

Solitary confinement that is what I’m in, I am confined to these four walls and for a while now, I have been
There is no one to talk to and somedays I feel I’m going insane, this must be what hell feels like, living in this pain
I am to be kept away from others, there is no socializing for me, not that I want to anyway, I just want to be free
I can’t escape this cell and I can’t escape this pain, please someone tell me this will end, that I will be me again

I just want to live my life and be happy, but here I am all alone with nothing but me
There is no contact of any kind to be had, some days I wish for it and others I’m glad
I must be alone I know to work through the pain, but that doesn’t help me sleep at night when I scream out your name
Please help me find the key to get out of this place inside, that’s hard to do though when the cell is your own mind.

There are so many kind ones, and we all must remember that. God bless you! Your poems make me sad, for I feel you have had a loss. Amanda Kinzer December 14, 2019 at 10:03 PM Oh thank you sweetheart!
