Duo Rhyme...




Confusion’s Pain
The mind swirls with own confusion,
Image viewed is an allusion,
Colors on shadowed walls are stained,
As if one was captured and chained, Screams enter the mind it is drained,
Entrance to the soul was not gained,
Sounds escaped from weary chest pained,
For strength was not taught or was trained,
Will shall aid body’s conclusion,
Confusion’s pain needs transfusion.

- Rhoda Galgiani
