Bound, Gagged, and Blind



I'm bound

my hands tied behind my back

behind my heart

Being held by the strings of depression and sorrows

I'm bound

because I can't do anything to help you

and hurts deep within my soul

deeper than any physical wound could go



I'm gagged

My tongue can not find the words to soothe you

Webster never made aword that can ease your pain

I open my mouth but my voice is mute



I'm blind

the tears cloud my eyes

I'm blinded by the tears of sadness that overflow my heart and soul

I'm blinded by my need to help in any way possible,

but having the ability to do nothing



If anything could be done to lighten the burden upon you I would do it

I would crawl any distance just to hold you, if I knew it would help

I'd give all i got away if I could change the past for just one day



I'm Bound,

I'm Gagged,

I'm Blind,

but I'm still here for you.
