Chains

Shackle me no more!

I have grown tired of these chains!!

No more begging..

No more pleading..

They will not listen to a feeble voice,

A voice that seeks sympathy or compassion..

No they merely tighten their grasp..

Entangling me further!

The more I give in,

The harder they grasp!

Luring me in with false promises

Into a world built on lies

Once you see the truth

There is no turning back..

Once you see the chains,

You will always see them!

But shatter them

I will not with flailing arms

Weak strikes, half-effort

This will serve me no good

For the chains are strong!

Let there be discipline

For with discipline comes focus

For with focus comes power

For with power I can shatter these chains

“For with power I can shatter these chains”
