The Chains That Tie Me

By tanacrys

Hello,

Do you remember me?

My voice? My smile?

Do you think of me?

Of us? Our memories?

In every waking moment, you haunt me

I have had enough

Like a demon I exorcise you

You are not welcome in my head nor do I want you there

This you know but yet you still linger

Despite how many priests or baptisms

You stay

I am a poor soul trapped by the chain that is you

Imprisoned by my own mind

Fueled by my own thoughts

At a leisurely pace, my resentment towards you grows into confusion

Was this meant to happen

Is this burden I carry a blessing in disguise

Should I feel this way

I smile weakly and tell the priest I am healed

That I am rid of you

For it is not the action of others that will heal me

But those of myself

I wake up the next morning

Unchained, Untied, Unconfided

Liberated
