Chains

15 0 0
                                    

In this world,

We walk with a noose around our necks,

Ready to be tightened

And when done thrown over the decks,

Heavy chains rattle,

Shackled and bound around our hearts,

Tired because of battle,

And full of cracked parts

But we could escape them,

Stop being slaves,

Make our own emblem

And see what each heart craves

So you see,

These chains we all need to break,

Mark our freedom

And then we'll see what our love can make.

N.P.R.
