Prison
A poisoned relationship21 total reviews
Comment from cvcopac
I would have, if I had one left, sixed this just because of the raw emotion: the honesty of the encapsulated pain and suffering. I felt every word of the first 10 lines. You've done well with the rhymes, couplets, near and perfect, too, and though the syntax is a bit awkward at times, it flows well. I hope Crist heals this torn soul, it finds peace, and, perhaps, someday, a new love--more perfect. Kenny

Thank you very much for your thoughtful response. I appreciate the gesture of your intent to give this piece six stars. That means a great deal. Christ is healing daily. Thank you again.

When a relationship feels like a prison, there is something very wrong, and you had the courage to admit that. Without give and take and mutual respect, it just won't work. It takes two people and two brains. Good for you!

Lol. The last sentence made me smile, then laugh. Very true. Thank you for your comments and for your rating of this piece.
Comment from Dean Kuch
Eloquently penned, elegantly stated, Belinda...
I loved the flow of this piece, the ebbing of the poetic prose seemed to build like a crescendo and come crashing to shore like high tide. So many women (and some men, as well) are trapped in a prison of their own making. What courage and determination one must need to possess to finally rise up and get out of it.
Well done!

Thank you so much! Your right, it takes a lot of courage and faith in your success. It's not just my story there are many gathering that courage. Some men, too, as you point out. Thank you so much for your comments and encouragement.

Comment from ravenblack
Charming clearly a comparison of you ex to Prince Charming which ties in well with your picture of a crumbling castle that the title refers to as a prison. Congratulations on breaking free.

This is a good and cleansing expression of a painful experience. A love that turned out to be bad for you. I thought you expressed it all very well. Good luck

Comment from Dorothy Farrell
This is a well told sad story. It seems you have found you are better free. It's a very convincing read whether fact or fiction. One can never tell with poetry. I enjoyed your poem and hope - if fact - that you find peace which you are seeking. Good Luck. Regards Dorothy

This is an excellent poem. It is extremely powerful. This is an issue that we all need to think about. This is a very disturbing subject, but it is one that we need to think about. I'm glad that you shared this with us. Well done.
