Shackled

By Gray Vision

Bound by chain
I have no name,
Shackled for so long
My body is strained,
I've lost everything
Even pain,
Now so numb
I can't even feel rain,
Defeated and frail
I'm beginning to turn
Pale,
Now isn't that a shame,
But who's to say
It's always been this way.

  • A former member wrote: "I've lost everything Even pain" - what a great line. Going beyond the boundaries of what we think pain is. Right into being numb, a place none of us should have to be in. Thank you for sharing. =)
