Poetry: Chains

by Barbara Writes

Created on: May 22, 2009

Sad beyond compare

I have no life to share

I walk this lonely road

Carrying a heavy load

Feeling all depress

I live with constant stress

Trying to do my best

Living in regress

Pain in my heart

Never feeling apart

Left out of the game

I have no name

As my dreams fade away

I exist in chains

In a burning home

All alone

I'm going blind

All the time

Light-headed and dizzy

Staying busy

The light of the day

Makes me pray

For the comforts of darkness

From the heartless

Maybe it just me

Trying to be

Someone free

Of falling debris

Burning eyes, weary heart

Waiting in part

To share the love

From God above

It's hard to see

I can't believe

This world can be

Such a beast
