Love Poem: Imprisoned
Audrey Haick Avatar
Written by: Audrey Haick

Imprisoned

In my heart I know what is real
Yet folly and trifle reign
Whole lives are spent and wasted
Collecting superficial things
Whilst love truth and honor lay
Trampled scorned by many today

How much more can we consume?
Imprisoned by all the “stuff”
How long will we be blinded
By glitter and neon lights
All illusions tinsel and lies

Choose love truth and integrity
Not fleeting mercurial trifling things
Designed to make you fall
Let us open our eyes to see
Our days like passing shadows
Are adrift upon endless seas
