My once bright shining star

My once bright shining star

Like a curdled glass of milk... Sour to the taste
Why did it all go wrong? Those years gone to waste
A lengthy prison sentence; Served twenty years in time
The only problem is...Seems marriage was our crime
Invisibly shackled... The man I so adored
Released my heart my soul my world. Feelings we explored
My love my life my everything. The one who set me free
Now a cold and empty shell; I cannot set HIM free!
Once he was so strong and proud; Injustice crippled him
Battles for clearance every day; Spirit won't give in 
Our love.The price that has been payed; a system so unjust
He'll never give up fighting. His ash will turn to dust
The situation's haunting. How long will it last?
A debilitating hurdle; Marriage can't get past
His mind no longer with me. I miss his warm embrace
Just a distant memory... Our very special place.
Life's no bed of roses, but when two became one
I vowed that I'd be there for you, and help you carry on
We'll fight your demons together; cus we've made it THIS far
My life, my light, my everything
My once bright shining star

Such a sad story Maddison.  I could feel the love, the loss and the desire for your man once again, despite the hurdles put in your way.  Life can be so cruel.  Your rhyming and flow to your work just gets better and better, and your storytelling is really good. Vote and nomination from me once again!  You should be very proud of your writing, great job:)

You make me sick!

You make me sick!

Take a breath, breath real slow
Let it out, the past will go
Exhale the pain and the stench...

Hooked

Hooked like a fish from the depths of the sea
Body, now belongs to me
Powerless in spirit...
