Chained up all my life
Its not a life NO not for me
Despiste my neck being so strong
NOw I have to be
In true realization
That nobody loves me
And in effect, I am so loathed
By man for eternity
And then, well it just happened
A man removed my chains
I felt and tasted freedom
No chain no leash no reins
Just straw and more
And more and more
My joy as he pets me
The man with a red jumper on
Has gone and set me free.
There are no words to so describe
What its like to be
Humbled by what I now feel
His humility
The disgrace and shame of chaining me
All those former years
Despite my open protest
And my years of tears
Nobody could feel my pain
Nobody out there
And then this man with his red jumper came
He alone aware
He patted me so tenderly
Expressing so much care
And he alone removed my chains
He made me aware
There was one man in all the world
One man who did care
I went and looked at the other souls
Still chained up in there
I am humbled by my experience
Unloved and lost for sure
Self effacing and unprotesting
He opened my door
His act of pure courtesy
Has lifted me to heights
That previously i only dreamed of
In all those awful nights.
