Chained

Chains forged by depression

Chains built stronger with every oppressive word,

Chains that hold the prisoner fast

Chains that lead us towards death.

&

I am drowning in chains undersea,

I am trapped unable to be free,

I wear chains that rust and shine

I am waiting to be executed by the executioners.

&

I drown, I fall

I flee, and fight,

I die and live

I cry, I scream

I hope to never wake up,

To constantly live on repeat.
