Chains of Misery


​Chains and chains of Misery 
or equal lines of chains to fames
Right or wrong for this lame. 

But I don't want to be just another name.

A place of fame to be untamed,
by the lame who can't be tamed
by mere trust or is it lust.

It's hard to fight what isn't Right,
but still we continue on because we're young
and unconscious of what is Right.

So then we become held down
by our chains of Misery
because we wonder with our passed history.

Never making sense of our conscious Right of Misery.
