The Captive Poem by willow moon pearce

The Captive

Rating: 5.0


It was complete
A full measure Of ignorance and fear
Compounded from the new
And changes no one could believe

It was strange
Suddenly standing there
Almost a captive audience
Although I was the captive

But really I tried
Believe that!
Only the years I needed
For talking turned to minutes
And then -
Before I could scratch
Their cold unsmiling
Emotions
My time ran out
And I died.
