Love Poem: Trapped

Trapped

For she waits
Weeding through her past mistakes  
With her feelings deeply wounded 
As she was obtruded 
To find the reasons 
Of his faults affirmations
Her lover of many years 
Leaves her begging for more between the tears 
Mysteries behavior he displays 
Left in the dark and haze
Should she stay and reap the benefits 
After all he does have good merits 
Or move on and take a chance 
Its not like she’s losing anything 
There’s no romance 
“Oh” but there’s my child’s concern 
When will she ever learn?
He plays his role well 
Stepfather done swell 
But his lack of passion 
Has got her mind thrashing 
As she lives like a mouse in a cage 
Trapped in her own rage
