Where the child can be free

I'm not sure if I ever posted this but I am sure I wanted to
If it was previously posted then I apologize for its redundance
If it wasn't previously posted then here it is

Call Me Cathy

Each pair resting high upon its pedestal
White wigged and determining
My sentence is undeserved
and yet they will not hear my plea
   For it shall never be made
Caring not for past
Or future.  Only now, on the surface
What can be judged on sight
And my search continues
    For signs of existence
And while I read them
Like harsh words on a blank page
they too search for signs
Of bitter truths to be found.  But no
    Only forged opinions remain
For now, I am content
To go hand in hand with one
Living in fabricated falsities
With my other around the throat
     Choking the will away
For the hands of beauty to
One pair of unknowning judge
Becomes the tentacles of
undying evil to the other
      Heart to one, bed to another
With the woven tales
Cast over the jury
The second hand ticks
Closing it's fingers tighter
      Tightening grip and shortening gasps
So dance my puppet
As I pull your strings
Unwitting servants to devotion
The court will not see this case
  Not today for sure
    Nor ever

Some "trials" are judged
only by silence.

Read between some lines
of my choosing...

and I note you chose your words
carefully.

I don't understand how anyone could forget having posted such an expressive and well written poem!  You did GOOD!

Beautiful poem. I feel the emotion and it is very well written.

"For now, I am content
To go hand in hand with one
Living in fabricated falsities"
