Men With Chains
Men with chains
Come on the lips of kisses
Vibrating warmth and passion
Kindness that lights the heart
With feelings alive, pouring out
Tender hope over the thoughts
Men with chains
Clinging together, preparing
To lock the locks
Turn the keys to the prison
Of dark longings
Men with chains
Quivering rage on the sullen embraces
Of blazing rage, piercing
Her dreams with a custody
That clips her wings
Men with chains
Remind her why she needs
She cries – she tries
To remember why
Beneath a black eye
Men with chains
Shadow even the heart
With storms, assaulting
The spirit’s deafening silence
