Control Poem by Jason Portillo

To touch my feelings is a dream
Hope is one of the cruelest emotions
Deceit to be brought down by hope
I yearn for my soul to find support

Isolation for me to hide with
Obscure myself from your eyelids
I desire to find an escape
Death seems to be the only place

Shrouded are your emotions from me
The fear of hope tortures me
Sighs of desire yearn for you to say
The future ends by gripping today
