captured
imprisoned
in an elegant cell
pillowed
warmed
still this is hell
enraptured
deluded
in the heart i dwell
In a list

So many jaded views on love lately
It's sad to see, but a lovely poem and I can understand where you're coming from.

Very dark and powerful. Love the closing line, it says so much.
Excellent work.
Thank you for entering!
