Hostage

slack long sigh heights hostage
words grief bare pockets veiled wrapped gather

The Sunday Whirl Wordle #623
Hosted by bwarren

Her sigh was long
filled with veiled grief
Words chosen with care
she fought to gather her courage

The young man’s slack face
displayed his depraved heights
and bare hunger for her hand
his misplaced love apparent

She slipped her cold hands
into the pockets of her cardigan
and wrapped it around her tall body
no longer his hostage she walked away
