Escape

ESCAPE !

  Heart gently captured,

Love grown ,nurtured

Contact flesh to flesh,

Voices lively and fresh,

Physically alive,

   Thoughts allowed to thrive,

Escape not an option !

Honey moon finished

Love diluted, diminished,

Contact sporadic,

Voices but only periodic,

Physically dying,

Mentally inside crying,

Escape not an option !

Relationship illiterate,

Self esteems obliterated,

Contact only bone to bone,

Voices screaming in angry tones,

Physically battered,

Thoughts, mentally splattered

Escape not an option!

The final straw broken,

Bruises the only token,

Contact not an option,

Less talk, more action

Physically drained ,

Only one thought now ingrained,

Escape is the only option!

Rebel In Lace

Rebel In Lace 

Rebel in a lace dress 

All prettied up and hair brushed 

No strops or tantrums or the usual stress

You, 

being you 

You won't be rushed 

Rebel in a lace dress 

On show for admiring glances

All grace and manners you express 

You,

being you 

You'll take your chances 

Rebel in a lace dress 

Clinging to your unique originality

Playing at being infused with finesse 

You,

 being you 

You'll do it theatrically  

Rebel in a lace dress 

You maintain your attitude.

Your character has not been repressed

You,

 being you 

You express it with your shoes.
