Cadges Or Chains

Sad story real or fantasy about life's situations. Everyone here needed someone to reach out and love them. Keep writing. Sara

G'day John! I don't know if this is a for real situation, but regardless it is a profoundly sad piece. Whoever might have lived through something like this would certainly have felt burdened by "chains' or emotionally imprisioned. Thank you for sharing this with us! Wishing you and yours the best...Mikki
