M.B. Campbell Poems

Innocence given
while trapped beneath.
These chains hold strong
as my mind is held, hostage.
...

Embedded in my illness
beads of emotion shed.
Left to suffer
my corpse is forgotten.
...

Sheltered
& seduced by both ends.
I become helpless,
hidden in my shell.
...

Once tolerated
but given a chance to suffer.
As silence is near
I become weak
...
