DEMENTED!!

This form of poetry is called "Acrostic Poetry" where the first letter of each line makes up a word and the word represents the gist of the poetry. This form of poetry was taught to me by Ms. Pratibha Sofat (or Prats, as we lovingly call her)....



Devoid of joy, faith and trust,
Entrapped, entwined, for freedom, I lust,
Misery engulfs me more and more,
Embedding sorrow deep into my core,
Nothing seems right, nothing seems nice,
Tense is each moment, filled with my cries,
Emerging, the poison of hatred, taking its toll,
Demented, destroyed, denuded - my soul!!
