Challenge
Pen to the Paper 12
Sit down and write without first planning your work. Any theme, any genre: just don't plan it first. You do not have to submit the first draft.
Caught
Bonded and chained
Stuck where you don’t belong
Agonized screams reach to the ceiling
But, you tell me you are strong
And that this prison won’t last long
I see through you, you are pained
Despite all that, you remain headstrong
You are killing all your emotions and feeling
Caught in this throng all day long
Singing and believing in that silly, stupid song
The true, real you has waned
I knew it would happen all along
You know, unless you start to seek healing
This agony and sorrow will only go on
And you'll always be stuck in this never-ending throng
