The Invisible Chain

Those silver eyes caught me,
Entrapped me.
My head screamed run,
But my body said stay.
My eyes must have revealed my fear,
          'Cause you chuckled.
And then you petted my head,
Twirled my hair.
I was too afraid to breathe,
Too afraid to twitch.
I should have brushed away your hand,
Brushed away your existence.
My body did your every bidding,
Even when my head,
And my heart,
Scream RUN.
What curse you put on me?
Kindly release me.



Please.,
Lina.
