Incarcerated

In hospital, trapped and locked away,
With my faculties in some disarray,
And as I struggled to insanely cope
I sanely didn't give up my hope. 

I plodded along through an existence,
That is boring with some persistence,
And I had irritable side effects –
Patients are medical subjects. 

I’m drawn into female vulnerability,
And ask the question of sensibility,
To be reciprocal in close proximity
With the wisdom to try and be happy. 

My exploits get reprimanded,
And inappropriately remanded
To my room with supervision –
An unjust and hated position. 

The nurses followed me about,
And I was prone to shout,
To express my expressions
Of heated to the core relations.

    1. Thank you Yvonne, for your kind words. It took over a year for the doctors to put me on the right medication that suited me! Gladly I've been well now for a long spell, which is swell. Blessings to you. Love love, Andrew. Bye.

  2. I can't even imagine what this must be like, Andrew! I would hate being trapped and locked away. So much you have expressed in just a few lines. Glad you're better now.
