"Broken Chains"
It's like I'm falling fast
Into a world full of shame
And even if my heart gets broke
To you it's just another game.
I'm stumbling around this room
Trying to find the light
But you want me to fall again
So you cover my eyes of sight.
I'm determined to get out
No matter what the price may be
Because these chains are getting heavy
And my soul wants to be set free.
I lift my eyes to the Almighty
And ask for riddance of all the fake
A flash of lightning crossed the room
As the chains began to break.
The walls around me started to crumble
As a wind swept through the land
Reminding me I'm never alone
And will always have a guiding hand.

Whispering words that
by Tammy A
I walked across the hall Into my room
I closed the door behind me
And entered into my world
You sat at the corner Waiting for
