Broken Dream

A Broken dream
with tattered seam
hollow inside her
fearful night

In Solitary left
manchet with water
hearts engraved in
memorized torture

Serrature of time
tapestry the walls
torment never cease
suffering begone

Spellbound

Hey hey - I really like this one. It does seem short but the brevity and rhythm make the words more powerful than they would be if it was much longer. Also it seems much like a spell to me which gives it that mysterious feeling. It makes me want to ask you to tell me what it means but then I also don't want you to tell me because then it would ruin the mystery and my own interpretation. Nice work.
