Chains Poem by Miu Miu Ayushi

Chains



Life gave me many signs to follow
But sometimes fear was in the way
I kept hoping for a better tomorrow
Not wanting to face what I had today

Life can be cold and shallow
Making it difficult and unfair
A void in my chest, leaving me hollow
A feeling that leaves me vulnerable and bare

I pray for pity in my dark haze of sorrow
This conflict residing within me
Feeling tired and so very mellow
Trying to break these chains to set myself free

Looking towards the heavens to help me grow
I ask to be released from my current state
Wanting to sow seeds that will continue to grow
Removing me from the locks of my wooden crate
