Solitude, thy lonely chains <br />Have bound me all my life <br />It fetters and tightens, it pains <br />And lends me so much strife. <br /> <br />No beautiful world I have yet seen, <br />Because the years have passed me by; <br />My hands are tied but my mind is keen <br />As held and bound I lie... <br /> <br />I wait for the day, the moment dear, <br />When God will set me free. <br />I wait and wait with lonely fear, <br />What else but wait and see. <br /> <br />A single friend, a single hand <br />To aid me end this ordeal; <br />To walk this lonely stretch of sand <br />With friendship true and real...<br /><br />aigis nalian<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/chains-of-solitude/
