Chains

The binding of the chains embraces my body I have tried over and over to break free of most of them or still trying to But... The chains around my ankles are making it hard for me to walk but I still try my best I put one foot in front of the other. It may take me longer to get there but I won't give up. And slowly I get there You can always escape those chains. Maybe not the ones that your bound to today Just use something else that's not your voice your wisdom your words even sewing What ever your joy may be If one is taken away Don't give up just put more time and energy into something different

I've read several of your poems, April and found all of them lovely and full of emotion. I especially liked this one inspiring others to keep trying in their own way. Well done.
