Trapped Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

Trapped



In her dream she was lost
Trapped in a world of confusion
Troubled by her restless inner being
She held onto that branch of life
Not knowing that she is holding onto hopelessness
Her inner voice kept coming back
To knock some sense into her numb mind
To bring her back to reality
To set her free once again
She held tight to the mirage of her dream
Never wanting to believe
What she already knew
That she is in a ghost ship
Sailing the ocean of life
With no captain to steer her home
She looks up to the stars
To save her cursed voyage
To rescue her dreamless mind
She looks to the rising sun
For another cup of hope
She is forever numb
To the voice within
That wants to take her home
