Shackled ...
These chains ..
confine and restrict me
prevent & deprive me
of being me
of being free.
Reminding me of a past
outcast
The ties that bind
so unkind
making me rewind
what should have been left behind
Life hurts
why must I feel??
why must I conceal?
is there no other way to break free?
I'm suffocating from the lies
from the quiet
It's too loud
in my head an endless riot.
Holding on to secrets
sworn to keep
so I sleep.
Tomorrow seems so far away
these...
