Solitary Confinement of the Mind MAG

By Anonymous

The darkness is as blinding
as it is binding
my soul into
its corruptbowl

The sweet sensation
of mastication
on my sanity
isdeafening

The dreary evil
is believable
when all the demons
areout to play

Alone in purgatory
my own conservatory
I wait
for thelight

Darkness leaves
children scream
as I am free ofsolitary

@tmoss1223, maybe the poet did that on purpose?

Wow! That is really great! You are oficially the first person I have commented on. Also...Don't think I am dissing your work, but do you know that someof the words are together, as in no space between them. I am not saying you need to correct it if you don't want to, but some people would want to. Keep up the good work! Thanks!
