Under Lock And Key Poem by Kim Schilling

Morn cracks with burning golden rays;
Its fingers pry open internal darkness,
Bleeding eyes wary of the night’s angst,
Watches for Evil has danced upon her soul.

Words whispered in a sinister hush set afire;
Under lock and key she does cower and bow.
Silence her only acquaintance - her escape –
Devoured by unforgiving, guilt-ridden worms.

He is everywhere watching and waiting –
Desecrating her under the light of the moon;
Entombed with fear as death hovers over,
She belongs to him, for he has muted her.

In her nightmares He freely roams about –
Slashing her virtue and honor mercilessly,
His cruel domination over her – silence;
Under lock and key she does cower and bow.
