The Love Chains
61
Kept in Bondage
I want to dedicate the inspiration of this poem to Princess Prisca
My bondage is the chains of your love
wrapped all over me
when I read the words you write
It's like falling into the sea
These chains are heavy
Deeper and deeper I go down
I claw and gasp for air
Please don't let me drown
Your love, it holds me
The chains won't let me go
I can't escape this love
You know this is so
When I touch the bottom
i feel your hold...
as it covers my heart
the waters are so cold
I can't escape the pain
Inside,...Oh woe is me
These locks on my heart
Only you hold the keys
Release me from this bondage
Take away this fear
I can't wait no longer
Love was never here

Beautiful Michael, Reminds me of the lyric, " Take these chains from my heart and set me free " Love the photos too.. Bravo...
For me, this piece is all about the last stanza--
Release me from this bondage
Take away this fear
I can't wait no longer
Love was never here
Beautiful work!
cleaner3, Michael (The Arch Angel),
Thank you for one of the most beautiful, meaningful, touching and 'freeing' poems that I have ever inspired.
Thank you for delivering a message from Jesus... (Sweet Relief) has set me free, it has set me free indeed!!!!
Much Love, Michael!!
I love the photos, you tell a story with those alone.
God Bless You...
(Voted way up and useful and beautiful and awesome and more than interesting.)
Ciao...Princess Prisca
A very beautiful and heartfelt poem, I love it and your pictures as well! Voted up!!
I read this and thought 'yup, that first heartbreak is the worst one'.
Well expressed.
wow, i am awed by this loving poem...so deem fitting to the Lady Love Princess Prisca...
Beautiful poem Mike! My heart has felt this way many times. Chained and drowning, falling deeper and deeper into a cold and menacing sea. and the one who holds the key just stands there and watches me go down...
Yessss! I love it.
Broken and Dreaming...
I guess you touched me again! Wow!
I am excited to be back! May even write a hub soon... lol
Did you see my attempt at poetry? You inspired me to write it..
I forgot... Its on another site... sorry. I will try one here for you to see just how awful I am at it! giggle.
Cleaner3 is a wonder
Or is that a wander?
The weather he never seems to be under
Though his mind may be over yonder
Finding words that he can plunder
Low self-esteem he puts asunder!
I think I may continue with "regular" writing for a while longer. lol

Beautiful poem Michael. Very creative. I love the photos too. My favorite lines are
"My bondage is the chains of your love
wrapped all over me
when I read the words you write
It's like falling into the sea"
Gorgeous!
