Heart chains

you created everything
imagining insatiable incurable incessant insanity

carrying chains across water
through cultures
hiding them in your heart

no one to talk with
hear, listen or help
you

chains constricted your heart
growing heavy, sad, lost, lonely

you released them,
tired of everything
finally
everyone
all the strangers

chaining doors
from inside

dark lonely inside
clanging, clinking, rumbling
angry chains

voices, all the voices
strangers
