Trapped - A Poem By Veda Sri

 You are my inspiration,

 The soul of my verse.

 But the pain you have given me,

 Is no less than a curse;

 You are my dream,

 The one I strove hard to achieve.

 But you're like a star in the sky,

 That I could never seem to reach.

You are my light,

That once shone so bright.

But you left me in plight,

And there's nothing left in my sight.

You are my poem,

That I recited day and night.

But I never knew you abhorred reading,

Until you tore my pages apart.
