Finding Freedom Poem by Nalini Jyotsana Chaturvedi

This phase of life
Will also pass
The knots it has tied
Will never last

Today I am helpless
Restricted and restrained
Bound and gagged
By heavy metal chains

People and relationships
Have done this to me
But soon that time will come
When nothing will bind me

Enraged in this cage
I have tried my best
To escape
But now my spirit knows
These cages are just fake

The day I stop to resist
The cages will no longer persist
And I will stop feeling the pains
Of crushing metallic chains
