Chains Of Solitude Poem by aigis nalian

Solitude, thy lonely chains
Have bound me all my life
It fetters and tightens, it pains
And lends me so much strife.

No beautiful world I have yet seen,
Because the years have passed me by;
My hands are tied but my mind is keen
As held and bound I lie...

I wait for the day, the moment dear,
When God will set me free.
I wait and wait with lonely fear,
What else but wait and see.

A single friend, a single hand
To aid me end this ordeal;
To walk this lonely stretch of sand
With friendship true and real...
