I've been a captive for so long
....please let me go!
untie me from this torture!
You...you tricked me!!
How could you?
I can never trust you again!
You...my own heart!
My own heart placed me in this prison!!
for 7 months I've been trapped
I've been drugged
injected with an ecstacy that caused this infatuation
please stop this madness
I don't want to be here anymore
every pain I feel
only brings me back to a deceiving happiness
this isn't right
every drug promotes my addiction
this ludacris addiction
Hear me out!
let me go!
set me free!

Nicely done, I feel the format sort of distacts from the flow of the piece. But it is well worth the read. Good one

Wow. I loved this! I once felt this way before. I like how this is so angsty, it can relate to many people, I'm guessing. I really enjoyed this poem. It was marvelous. Your words were extravegant, and made me feel what you were trying to portray. I absolutely loved this! I hope to read more of your work sooner or later! It would really be a privilage. By the way, I enjoyed the title b ecause it really matches this poem. It's what grabbed my attention from the "Newly added" list of poetry on AP. Glad I had a chance to read this.
If you would gladly return the favor, I would absolutely appreciate it. I would hope you'd read my "The Realm Of My Dreams" at allpoetry.com/Poem/1817277 I wrote it with all my heart, and I hope you like it as much as I liked your poem.
Take Care,
