A Moment in Time, Captured in Verse
Displacement
-By Christine Murrain
My color is green,
but I feel blue
Because, You plus her
Equals me,
Minus you
Weight of Deception
-By Christine Murrain
Truth begins to surface,
As lies become the sea
And my confirmed suspicions
Weigh most heavily on me
Silence
-By Christine Murrain
Why do I owe you
A debt of silence?
To hide the pain I feel
Is violence
Manipulator
-By Christine Murrain
You smirk at me
As my boundaries do offend
You turn the gaslight off,
Stand by and defend
Friends?
-By Christine Murrain
Graced with company
But only through the night
By those, who in my sorrow
find delight
Here
-By Christine Murrain
In a universe so large
Often joined with fear
I am joined with you
And so, I like it here
People-Pleaser
This is the life I’ve made
An unfair trade
My freedom for plague
Fault of my
Accommodating ways

Surrender
-By Christine Murrain
Barriers down,
Love has humbled me
No need to breach us
Just let it be
Hindered
-By Christine Murrain
I lie where I once stood
A sample of the old me
And If only the world could see
I’d be more if it weren’t for…
HE
