Blank Canvas

anongirl47

Can't escape from the voice,

that pressures me to draw,

directly onto the blank canvas,

hid so well you never saw.

 

Wrists, hips and thighs,

a picture I have created,

yet must be covered incase of wandering eyes,

in fear of judgement and hatred.

 

Trapped in a mind that doesn't understand,

how to keep itself from drowning,

this time, last time, next time,

four times, five times, six times, counting.

  • ANGELA & BRIAN

    ANGELA HERE (I share this site with BRIAN my Fiance) Hi AG47 - Welcome to MPS. Thanks for sharing your first Poem. It is well structured - Three balance quatrains with a consitent rhyme pattern (xaxa abab xcxc). However - as you say - it paints a very SAD picture ! We do sometimes get trapped into Mental & Physical situations we cant fully understand ! I have faced such situations in my life - especially in relationships. However things changed when I met Brian three years ago (when I was 28) and we are getting married in April - AMEN. In my experience therfore there is always HOPE - however sad the past !

    Blessings & peace for the future
    Yours ANGELA 🧡🧡🧡
    Please check our site - Thanks A & B
