Robbed
I was not minding my own businessWhen words struck me
And these words stunned me
Like a blow to the head
And I am left mute
Not exactly
A mute can produce pen to paper
Words
But I have had my words stolen
And the paintings are not painted
The romantic ramblings crashing to earth
My balloon punctured
Not by Cupid's arrows
I have allowed another to
Draw the curtains
And obstruct my view
I have allowed another
To make me feel shame
And so the chain formed
Link by link rather than
Like by like
Love by love
So I sit here empty headed
My mind to write with nothing
Passionate on my mind
What freedom my imagination offers me
Has been taken by the sweep
Of another's blade
