Bound To Chains Poem by Cati Walthall

I seek freedom
but I'm bound to chains
This life is so numb
some people are so vein
searching for a light
at the end of the tunnel
I have to hold on tight
or I might crumble
My soul is imprisoned
but what did I do?
Will I ever be free?
What has my life come to?

I want to be whole
Just like I was
heart and soul
peacefully calm
even if I'm glued together
You can still tell I shattered
These scars will last forever
So it really doesn't matter.
My heart is a broken vase
Pain all around us
the hurt written on our face
but no one can tell it.
