=

















CAPTURED

captured, held hostage and
starved in the dark
days, nights ...
no longer able to count
cruel ghosts push
shove
mock
raising above
in hollow efforts to
bring me afloat
=
Silenced, still
kicking
flailing
demanding
overturning
revolting
boiling over in rage
in an isolated cage
=
Observed
in deliberate
detached
indifference
failing
fearing to
identify
relate to
the same rage
the same cage

I fully understand it now.

Yeah... the "ghost"
could be anyone.

I could have also chosen the word memory or staments or any other number or words,
as when words are expressed by someone, only their "ghosts" remain to haunt you....

:)

symbolically speaking also the gifts given through thoughful/loving/caring words remain in my soul, ultimaltely appreciating both as they elicit feelings, whithout which it would be hard to experience life.

Needles to say, I am due a whole lot of thoughful/loving/caring words.
Time to catch up!

BIG HUG sweetie
