Trapped

by Charles J Hannan

The light peers through my eyelids
Sharp as a knife
My life begins one more time again
Like yesterday
And the day before

I can’t tell
When does this get better
Will there be gold
Silver
You in my arms
Forever
I can’t let this flood overwhelm me
The undertow drown me
My life to pilfer me

Yet it seems to stop
Stuck in muddy situations
With no wench to pull me out
And the mud forming into concrete
Which weighs heavy upon my life
Keeping my soul
Trapped
Confused
On how to get through this pain

Awww...I know this pain so well. But hey, we both know it's just a temporary feeling! Be strong...better times await!
