Ok this is not my usual type of poetry but I decided to give it a try. I need some opinions on this type of writing without a rhyme scheme. The Prisoner I am trying so hard to escape you. Your image is my warden, my guards, my cell, and these cold bars that imprison my heart. Sentenced for life, I will do my time alone in pain, amidst the darkness of an unfathomable future without you. All that I have left are these Polaroids of the mind, and the haunting thought of your smile. I shall never escape. |

Oh my, This is how I am feeling at the moment... I am also not used to this style of verse, but I have to say I think it probably works even better this way, reflecting the pain inside... I loved the use of the polaroid line. Thank you for sharing it. Abena |
