Paralyzed

sorenbarrett

Years wed

Time sped

On complacency fed

Not using our head

Instead

By heart led

Seeing red

Grievances pled

We’ve bled

Hanging by a thread

Hope a shred

Now we’ve fled

Due to dread

Nothing said

Lying in bed

Not a tear shed

The cancer spread

Our spirit dead

  • dusk arising

    Its gotta be said
    this pleased my head
    once it was read
    i was well fed

        Such circumstances are not always permanent or even personal but thank you for your review and kind comment.

      • L. B. Mek

        beneath your poetic mastery
        of rhythmically pleasing, wordplay
        exists, some deep - deep veracity
        to that true distilled state, of most
        unsuccessful relationships..
        wonderfully executed, a great read
        thanks for sharing, dear poet
