+ Prisoner In Me Poem by Jordan Legaspi

Prisoner in me

Evening falls
Forgotten thoughts of you
At the distance it seems
But my sight having no clue

Night trills
Suspended game, we both knew
At the distance it seems
But my consciousness it blew

Darkness contours
Ruined tarn a many hue
At the distance it seems
But my chest ignored yet what is true

Dawn waits
Cold and ragged eyes in its taboo
At the distance it seems
But my reason it’s true and fatal too

Dusk unfolds
Painted horizon anew
At the distance it seems
The broken wonder and awe

At the distance it seems
As it ended the lingered sorrow
Yet again it creeps
The trance of comfort but it’s a shadow
