Tethered, Bleeding, Left for Dead

Stripped ragged clothes away,
empty of pride tethered to grey.

Promised freedom wounded dead,
offered the noose inprisoned instead.

Broken dreams built in fallen days, burnt to ash discontentment stays.
An open world obstacles became, walls climbed higher stoke the flame.

The mind smolders silence poisoned, heart aches where stone positioned.

Bloodless veins sputter to stop, organs sieze thoughts to butcher shop.

Tethered to a darkened grey, once reason is taken away.

An empty skull would much abide, the constant stealing of our pride.

We beg for throw away disposable jobs, become their hustling blubbering slobs.

Tethered to a darkened grey, left for dead, bleeding every ounce of freedom away.
