Chains
As fire reigns in tempest glory
Lives are taken, the sight is gory
He silently awaits his guillotine call
Since mighty warriors silently fall.
In his heart there is anguish, pain and rage
He looks at the moon through the bars of his cage..
He had fought in the field with valiant might until behold! He saw a sight
In front of him the evildoer did slain his true love with cruel disdain..
She fell before him as her breathing slowed
How would his heart ever take this load?
His voice was choked,"I simply cannot see this sight..."
Her eyes closed,"The light on the other side is bright."
She died in his arms, left him bereaved "Oh my love, why did you have to leave?"
And so he was bound up in chains so strong
It didn't matter he thought, that he wasn't to live long...
