Tangles

by Renegade Angel   Jun 1, 2011


The chains that bound me.
These eyes that force my face up
A heart full of wonder, but a tangles mess
With vines caressing my heart, wanting to be so eager and full.

My eyes look, scowled but not broken.
The chain digs deeper into my flesh
I see this bleak and barron land, not a token.
These skies, gray and mesh.
I see no one. These chains make me bleed
Arms soaken with sweat.

I turn and see you.
I know you abase me, so do not help abate.
The tangles grow thicker, stronger, faster too.
A sensation of bitterness and black sedate my vision

These tangles tighten more
As you walk away further and further more.

    This piece is sad, it's sort of like hearbroken but in this case it hasn't been broken yet but is in the process as the tangle vines start to become stronger and thicker exerting more force.

    This is the way, I understood it.
    Nice metaphors.
