Last Poem Written
Memories and visions trapped in her head.
Spreading the feeling she's already dead.
Words would come without any strain.
Allowing her to write through the pain.
Within the ink she will forever hide.
Trying to be free of the darkness inside.
Knowing her destiny is to be alone and lost.
The agony in her words came at a cost.
Most of her life she's been treated unkind.
No longer able the words to find.
Not one feeling of love was ever displayed.
Many times in life she has been betrayed.
Unable to explain her life's tale.
Deciding to live behind the veil.
Her final thoughts in these lines.
Putting down her pen one last time.

DeleteExtreemly well though out write Tammy, And nicely done. I can't name how many times I have been tempted to lay down my writing pen. But writers feel responsibility to spread the truth, a deep thought to keep me writing. So keep your truth comming Tammy. Your writing is unique.
