Tough, self imposed chains,
so hard to remove,
drives focus insane,
no room to improve.
Captures bravery,
hopes can not move far,
unseen slavery,
inherited scar.
Fear is the leader,
crawls up a strong spine,
creates a steel cage,
cement draws the line.
Sprouts of intentions,
tickles a free mind,
lingered reflections,
helps fright fall behind.
Keys turn, as hearts dance,
eliminate links,
provide a new chance,
unaided to think.
Embrace inner light,
allow it to guide,
point of views shine bright,
share thoughts kept inside.
