Sunday Scribblings " Captive"

Sunday Scribblings prompt this week is appropriately "Captivate"

When being captivated turns into being captive!

Mental Carnage

Captive is the child
Who’s father moved away
Taking with him
Mental illness
And a wife

Captive is the daughter
Worrying about
Things she
Can’t change
Or see

Captive is the woman
Living alone
With a stranger
She thought
She knew

Captive is the truth
Ricocheting
Back at you
After years
Of denial

Captive is the divorcee
Who knows
The new wife’s fears
And sits back
Mummified

Captive are those who know
What  may come
What could be
As they wait
In dismay

 Sometimes things touch you so deeply all you can do is weep and write. That was me after this truly touching video! I can only pray the next step for this young man will be wonderment and joy, for he deserves it ten fold! 

Humble
in a  mire of adversity
Your spirit shone through
Begging attention
Searching for love
Touching the world
With a song
Of  hope!
