Chained

Each day is pain, every breath in vain
The turning of boons into an aching bane
Falling deeper into a daily desperation
Thrashing around to flee this suffocation

What do you do when physically trapped
In a space where you just can't be
In a sheath of anguish wrapped
And a hopelessness that you can't flee

When every venture fails
And every corner leads to an end
When life turns into a labyrinth
And a monster waits at every bend

Love was supposed to converge
To be the end to all means
And while the world struggles for riches
My lifelong struggle is you, it seems
