In the dark scary dungeon, there was something chained to the wall.

Like a loud rattling noise.

Someone or something trying to escape, to be set free instead of being held captive....

Honor bound, heart not found,

Try again later.

Chained up, maimed up,

Done by all my haters.

All my chains, all them hanged

By my shackle’s banners

Yet here I stand, life in hands,

Shattered by a hammer....

Mannix had finally got the hang of this whole pirate life. he was out helping the crew dock.

I was told to stay under the bunk. I had wrapped myself around his pack gaurding it. nobody bothered me though. I was just Mannix’s Bitch, his gaurd dog.

once they got the shipped docked Mannix whistled I put the pack in the cell and managed to cover it with straw then I headed above deck and sat down by ...

Each poem I craft is a living, breathing thing.

My children are scattered amongst the pages.

Some leave their legacies by blood.

I think I will leave mine in ink.

The link that binds me

Cover to cover

To the contemporary

And the classic.

The future is short-form

For short attention spans.

But I’m a rambler—

And speak up so very little in reality

That my mind is my greatest weapon

And also my gr...

I use to be free, but these chains hold me down.

I use to smile, but these chains cause me to frown.

I use to laugh, but these chains cause me pain.

I use to dance, but these chains make me lame.

I use to sing, but these chains make me mute.

I use to play, but these chains make it hard to move.

I use to feel light, but these chains are made of lead.

I use to live, but these chains made me dead...

Chasing me, locking me away.

He held me hostage. I felt

Alone, Afraid and Abandoned.

In the dark, in these heavy chains.

Nobody knows where I am.

Someone please help me!

ALTERNATIVE ENDING-doesn’t fit acrostic theme-

(Wait never mind just leave me

be and go away. I’ll disappear 🫥

Into infinity.)-goes after last line....

She’s been chained-

for how long? i can’t remember

she watches couple after couple

walk down each street

she’s happy for them

but she wants love too

last time went wrong

the last time was terrible

heartache after heartache

she watches her friends fall

while she’s alone

she’s been chained to nothing

for too too long

there is no key to the lock on her heart

she’s chained to nothing

chained t...

Chains bind the captive

Chains bind the souls stuck

But chains bind the free too

Those chains are invisible

They hold us down

You can feel the weight even if you deny

You can hear the metal clang

You can feel the restraint

We see people in chains everyday

From their jobs

Their family

Their money

Chains are more then metal that binds prisoners

Chains hold us back

Chains limit us

Break your chai...

If you were chains,

I’d ask to be locked up.

My mouth would beg

for a jail follow-up.

If you were chains,

I would love to be weighed down.

Something comforting

about the tons of pounds.

I guess it’s a little weird?

If you were chains,

make me the ghost

of Jacob Marley.

Leave me chained to a post.

If you were chains,

I’ll sit alone in the castle,

make ‘em think I’m crazy,

make ‘em try to hassle...

I'm bound

to these shackles

pulling at my wrists

dragging me down

this burden I carry

is too big for my hands

so I carry the heavy weight

in a chunk of my brain

I can't even think straight

without this chain

it reaches every corner and crevice

so I can't have a real life anymore

I want to go back

take it off and fly like a dove

free from the mess

physical and mental

please take my chains...
