Cunning Curse

Ostracised by all in my times of dire need,
This cunning curse.
With false armour, enamels me.

A fake smile and cheery demeanour,
gives false opinion to all around,
while the imprisoned Jacob screams for help,
but he's unable to make a sound.

Pushed back further into the abyss,
by this cunning curse,
that will writhe and will hiss.
Who offers me mere moments of joy and bliss,
Until contorting me tighter amidst,
it's gloom and despair……
Say goodbye to everyone Jacob.
I'm sure you'll be sorely missed.

Thank you.
Thought I'd try a new means of expressing myself any tips would be most appreciated. I've never tried writing a poem before.

Everyone has their own style ! This will develop the more you write and you will learn how best you like to convey your thoughts, visions and ideas !

The best ways to learn are to keep writing whilst reading other poets work thus gaining inspiration to try new techniques !

Best wishes to you !  :)

Thank you Valerie. Sincerely. It's scary jumping out of your comfort zone, especially when you have a condition that empowers doubt and fear, but so far so good.
