Hiding & Free Poem by Majdoleen (Maggie) Sukayri

Tonight, blue circles surround the full moon.
My inspirations were supposed to come soon
But my words have run dry, and I sit hiding in my own cocoon
With no window to the outside,
Should I? But I promised myself I'd
Never let you in again... Never again.

So empty, and so alone, I wait
For the moment to break out of my own hate
I got to confess, I don't feel so great,
I don't want to say you're the reason, and I don't want a debate
But if it weren't for you, butterflies would've fluttered freely

A lonely teardropp falls into your rancid pool
Right below me, but as long as I'm hidden in my little cocoon,
You can't touch me. I am now immune
To you and your toxic ways

You've given me no hope for a resolution
Not that I'm wishing for a reunion,
Until the day I break free, I have this notion
That I'll stay in my new sanction,
Hidden between the blue circles, right above your pool,
Is my little cocoon…
