Hopeless Poem by Ivana Mabry

where is my muse?
where is the wood that fueled my fire
where are the causes, reasons, desires? !
where is the drive, attempt, perseverance,
trapped by starving, famished interference
lifeless, lethargic vacant thoughts......
where is the love i once felt?
where is the cause for once i fought
did it dissipate, get too hot (melt)
did i succumb, give in n what not?
if trapped i became, and imprisoned is my soul,
if laws stand guard n men they hold....
i am hopeless
