I Write Poetry

Here's a poem that I recently wrote.

Prisoner of Your Love

When will I ever learn,
to stop wanting you?
Am I this stupid,
feeling the way I do?
I set myself up for a fall,
each and every time.
I've given you many chances,
thinking everything will be fine.
That you would finally care for me,
just as strong as I do for you.
But you treat me like a joke,
with the ignorant acts that you do.
I'm just under some kind of a spell,
that you hold over me.
I don't think I can do any better,
just wish you'd set me free.
I'm handcuffed to a dream,
of you and I walking hand in hand.
Finally able to hold you so close,
getting to be near my man.
But I'm just stranded behind bars,
lonely in solitary confinement.
Pining away for the day I'll see you,
wondering where all the time went.
Shackled in my own hell,
having nothing else to think of.
This hopelessness I feel everyday,
as a prisoner of your love.
Now I must break out,
and escape this suffocating dungeon.
I won't be a prisoner of your love,
my heart will no longer be bludgeon.
