Trapped Inside

Trapped inside This empty house, I start to Scream I start To shout, I fill like I'm About to die, If only I can find My way outside, Tears slowly fill My weeping face, There’s no way To escape this so Called fate, A dark shadow fills My room, He's back to Finish what's now My doom, He slings me against A cold brick wall, I can not walk I start to crawl, A sharp pain Fills my chest, As he begins to beat What’s barely left, I fill as if this Is the end But truly it Has just begun.

Joanie, this is a power packed emotionally charged poem. Nice job. I hope it is the beginning of the end of that relationship if this is a true story. They do have a home for battered women in most communities. There is NO ACCEPTABLE reason for any human to beat and batter another. Get out if you are in that kind of situation. Call for help. Get counseling. (Both of you-) I get too involved. Congratulations for having your poem featured this week. Keep writing, Loveand Hugs, Dane
