Chained

All I've got is just this pen

And this piece of paper

With my own thoughts and emotions

My own tears and whimpers

My own smiles and whispers

My hand shall start moving

All on its own

Obeying what the mind is telling her

Or obliging to the murmurs of my heart

Once doodling or drawing

Once writing or scratching

At some point it starts to shiver

Not from the cold it starts to quiver

More like from the swirl of emotions

The cries of the soul

The shouts of the insides

And the tears of the heart's mirror

Those wet specs

Like pearls they fall

From under thick lashes

On the black left ashes

From the trail of the pencil

Drenching the paper and what it carries

Wiping what has been said

And what has been written

As if nothing just happened

And we're back to the start

The very first beginning

When i was trying to say

What my voice wasn't able to verbalize

But what my soul was able to visualize

As if I'm chained

Left under control

As if I'm prohibited

More like forbidden

Not even allowed

To write the words of my mind
