    Imprisoned

    author: Victoria Maya
    category: strife

    I crave the touch of a warm blooded man
    His well-built arms embracing me, holding me
    I want such a feeling that can not be gotten
    I’m trapped in a world that was long forgotten

    Why do I crave what I can not comprise?
    I feel I’m deprived of love and its expression.
    I want to be the object of love
    Yet my life is on hold

    I need courage to break from the chains of my prison
    I want out of this cell that keeps me imprisoned
    Where do I get this bravery from?
    I must find the door out of this slump.

    I want true love
    I want passion
    I cry out to the heavens
    Send me a sign

    There must be a key to end this strife
    I’ve died a thousand times resembling a battered wife
    Wondering if I will ever see his eyes
    Or feel his warmth and love without surprise

    I’m a captive of my idea
    I can’t make a move onward
    The earlier period keeps pulling back
    To a place I don’t feel right

    One day I will break out
    I will be open to love
    I will dance and sing
    I will do everything

    Someday, yes someday that will be me
    But for now, I’ll have to daydream of the prospect
    The future where I will be liberated
    Free to be in love with him,
    And most of all, to be me.
