Chained Passions Free
From betwixt the bars, chained I stare; and see,
That freedom so scarcely seen snared, in fear.
Passion roaming from within starts to sear,
Bucking and running; jumps a fence to flee.
Heart pounding; head booming, shouting, “be free”
An eye for an eye, an ear for an ear,
What is there for me, but a single tear?
Heart slowing, head quiet, whispers, to me.
Crimson contentment, the passion flows free,
Released, removed, it flits far, high away
Out of me, externally, fleetingly.
Only seconds, within I’m free, just me.
And hidden I try keep the chains at bay
I know they’ll return again soon, for thee.
I’m a member of the best writing community online. It’s called the Ninja Writers Club . If you’re a writer, you should really check it out. There are lots of awesome classes, write ins, accountability, and just the feeling of being in a community of people who love writing just as much as you, is pretty amazing.
I really can’t explain how much this community has helped me. My writing quality and productivity has improved dramatically. Seriously.
