COBWEBS

Final point in insanity

Cannot leave, cannot be free

No matter how much I scream,

No one hears me,

No one listens,

Caught up in a cobweb of lies

So twisted with the truth

Then I loved you,

Now I don't


I said I would love you to the end,

Here I am locked up so as to pretend,

All was well and good

Only you were misunderstood


I am looking at my hoodie

They left the string in

So goodbye to you

Maybe we will meet in hell,

Which I already know very well

It was you who brought me

To this cobwebbed bedlam

From a home of agony,

You have brought me to desperation

Goodbye my love, you will be free.

Congratulations to Devilish for winning the competition: as you all know the gist of the story is of a person incarcerated in a sanatorium. You have successfully portrayed the mind of a person imprisoned in such a place. The insane thoughts laced with coherence are almost tangible.  Billywaise, congratulations for portraying the desperate mind of a man trapped in an unwanted union. That too can be thought of as imprisoned, pushing one to insanity. Miss Sub, you have portrayed two people desperately clinging on to something they are familiar with; this too can be a form of imprisonment. All participants have shown great talents in this competition which can be quite misleading due to the title: however cobwebs  is of the mind and the prompt later was for how the story line should go. Thank you for participating and I hope to see you in my next competition.
