Fettered by these four walls
Bound with visions of dungeon halls
Cursed by this circled fate
As I listlessly try to find the gate

The clashing sound of chains that bind
Collapsing the very use of mind
Leading not to know what’s safe
Amongst the horror of this place

Twist and turn to break these chains
Remove myself from so much pain
Find the link to set me free
Allow me room that I can breathe

I fake a strain then rip your heart
Escape restrains to make my start
And new light I will find this day
With hope that I’m allowed to stay.
Free

Ah yes...break the chains that hold you...spread your wings and fly...great write Rich

Ignore those who would clip your wings...fly ever upward...even if it means scorched wings
