Beast

by Teri T Lahmon

I feel you dying inside
And yet
There is nothing you will allow me to do
I am
a helpless Belle
watching petals fall
withering within a glass dome
Learning once again
That every gift is its own burden.

Lovely, this ode, laden and bereft with imagery which to a poet in similar fix is much appealing.
