Bonds..

by janiL   Aug 20, 2007


I move, unreserved
all of life spontaneous.
i move.. then sent back
by shackles bound oblivious

i wriggle and writhe
obscure to such constraints,
i fulminate and scream
dripping red from flesh in pain

despite such anguish
i cease not to stir.
my shackles binding, digging deep,
still i spew fury none of fear

limpid crystals drip
from my eyes intense and veiled.
my screams turn to slurred silence,
so to reach, have failed

now to you i call.
my wrists, now drenched, are numb.
what once was fury for true liberty
to hopeless fear succumb

free me, save me,
from my spurious freedom.
mortified spirit, impounded soul,
waiting for salvation to come

    You should capitalize I in every stanza, that leaves better impression.
    Anyway, the poem is great, very dark and truly excellently written, with powerful atmosphere and great wording. Also, it's very creative.
    My favorite stanza is:
    -free me, save me,
    from my spurious freedom.
    mortified spirit, impounded soul,
    waiting for salvation to come-
    5/5 from me, truly deserved
