A chapter in the book Dear Life

Dear Chains

by PUPA



Background
These are separate chapters
about different subjects in life.
I always personalize the theme
and write it in form of a letter,
in different styles and forms.



Dear Chains, 

 

I stop to look, find nothing around my feet,

 still feel your dreadful sensation.

Are you of my own mind’s creation?

 

To take a few steps is becoming arduous

when I drag you, heavy chains,

along with the rest of my pains.

 

Oh, how I wish I could get rid of you all,

take off your loads of deep blues.

as I do with agonizing shoes.

 

If I caused you to be, my strength of mind

will manage to craft a brand new key,

to unlock and set my feet free.

 

Then bare foot I will leap and run again,

to proclaim my control tower

and regain my lost willpower.

 

                      Sincerely yours,

                            Pupa

We do it to ourselves... much too often.
I am trying to remind myself to look closely and find out, if I am the one causing myself trouble and what I can do about it. Not easy, but having reached sixty, what is the use of getting older without getting wiser?? LOL!
