Broken Chains
by Michelle Newton
All day long I tangle with these questions
of unanswered fate and inevitable truths,
these teasing aches that haunt my soul
and the very thought of you makes me fall to my knees.
Where was I when all of this happened?
When did I lose myself
and where did I go?
I am looking for you in this vast jungle,
vines creeping to me, reaching for me
and you - peeking out from the chain of them.
I see you there, arms stretched out,
waiting for me to run and fold you in.
My eyes catch your gaze
and search the depths of your soul
where we meet and collide, once again.
I fall into you and all constricting things break free.
