Miscellaneous poems

Hope for the future

She had lost not only my presented necklace,
But her youth at heart.
Days gone yore,
She came to know the hateful chores of a big white house.
She wated to discover the life of poverty.
She turned hard, tough,
Stolid like Poneyboy in the Outsiders.
Like rays of sunlight seeping through whole punched clouds,
Her beautiful soul,
Once shining through her uber smooth skin,
had wilted into darkness,

Leaving me deprived,
Leaving me to freeze
in a box constructed with ice.
I was left stranded,
In a black cave,
sick of no contact,
no sign to tell me that you're alive,
nothing to reassure me
that our proposed future together,
is far away from being shattered like glass,
and is still glowing with life at the center of your heart.

Please! Give me a sign.
Show me movement within your body!
Even give me the slightest whisper,
So I can feel the warmth from your breath again.
Just give me hope.

Don't give up.
Your life is too bright for it to end like this.
You won't be a slave forever my darling.
Tonight I will set you free.
Help you escape from that wicked plantation,
and we shall run.
You and I, running from hell.
You and I, running to freedom,

Running for a future holding love.
Running in fearful confidence!
You and I,
taking control,
and running our lives.
