I took our heart and placed it under
Three locks and would not set it free
Not even for the world
I took the chains and secured them
Wound them round and round
Placed the lock and threw the key in the trash
With the sewer rats
Hidden from the light
Darkness is best
That is where your heart is now
I finally set mine free
It just escaped through the smallest hole
A fragment of
freedom
Thank you …
