Held By a Chain

The ground has thawed
The winter winds faded
Things left wounded 
Still are unaided

Time rushing by
In eternal flow
I sit wondering
Which course to go

In this speck of time
Nothing is clear
A world of chaos
Swallowed by fear

With all the world
Burning all around
With broken tools
Everything sinks into the ground

With small steps
The fights soon end
Once a foe
Is now a friend

And with new origins 
The facts remain
Nothing is closer
Life is held by a chain
