TRAPPED

 


TRAPPED

 

Breaks dawn spreads to color,

Orange eastern sky magnetic,

What happened, gathering clouds,

Spreading shadows dampen heart,

Transforms nature, changes heart,

Mind, once bright, found clouded,

Unknown event steals unknowingly,

Lost smiling face happiness sadly,

Blistering dry summer burn limbs,

Perennial squall thunderous knock,

Looking, parched lips, frustrated eyes,

Hail storms instantly plunder sorrows,

Dancing, soaked to the bone, cry out,

Spirit soaring spirally blot weariness,

Jovial state, jubilant mind celebrate,

Squall passes over soon sun blazes,

Alas, focusing mind elsewhere trapped,

Who traps me so often, then ditches,

Vibrant, colorful flowers bedecked,

Intoxicated mind by now singing,

Lo honey bee got wild trapped by color,

Sucking honey unaware pollinates,

Inkling idea could never fathom,

Trapped by fragrant beauty buzzing,

I smile at how foolishly trapped too,

Look evadingly film posters, heroin,

Seduced by her taunting looks boldly,

Attractive dress, slender frame creepy,

Stolen thoughts day long in the night,

Plunder my dreams, melts at dawn,

Why life feels tearful, sad, incoherent,

Cursed this lusty heart torment much,

Inconceivable screen queen to befriend,  

Escapes from the trap thank to clues,

Understand life habitually gets trapped,

Stood speechless in the front showroom,

New car with bright color shining,

The signboard indicates easy payments,

Bank loan available to purchase,

Lost my stability for a whole week,

day-long calculating income saving,

Crestfallen convinced it impossible to buy,

Experiences remorse disappear luster,

This was a saga of my life, hoped many,

Good job, a promising career, family,

Dreamed for months of a dream girl,

Looked at a bus, a train standing in a mall,

Looking at beautiful faces lost my mind,

Unknown to me, ignored vanished,

Neither food nor comfort was sought,

Discovered fever of love and search,

One quiet evening silence realized,

Trapped again, foolishly wait for a chance,

Twilight years laugh a lot at my heart,

How naughty it was to chain me easily,

Had the dream girl that I wanted,

Got promising career jobs, children,

Have sweet home my car gadgets,

Everything came in time I desired,

The human mind desires unlimited,

Trapped cunningly looted all happiness.
