Broken Chains

In the morn he rises, battered and torn A life filled with struggle, where love is forlorn Home felt like a prison, where care was denied A youth stained with anguish in memories he'd hide Forsaken, tormented, left to persist Marks on his flesh, a dark mental twist The past heavy load, oppressed his being He sought liberation, a life worth redeeming Through pain he fights, tears blur his sight Each step fears conquered, spirits ignites Escaping the grip of his past, now untied Stronger and bolder, his journey a new stride Wrestling to find his path, self unknown In search of true love, a warmth never shown No guide or mentor, no compass to steer He trudged through the battles, his purpose unclear Friends became family, a chosen embrace A network of strength, to help him keep pace Unearthing his calling, a reason to strive He vowed to keep pushing, to keep dreams alive Through pain he fights, tears blur his sight Each step fears conquered, spirits ignites Escaping the grip of his past, now untied Stronger and bolder, his journey a new stride In the shadows he once dwelled, confined by his strife Now he's broken the chains, embracing new life A survivor, a warrior, his hearts been restored Through the battles he's fought, his courages roared In the depths he found solace, a refugee from fear A way out the darkness, the path became clear He knew he could flee, leave the pain far behind A newfound freedom, a peace he would find He grasped that escape, no looking back now A life full of promise, a solemn vow He charged through the storm, embraced the unknown In the end he stood tall, his resilience shown The journey's been long, the road full of pain But now he stands tall, no longer in chains He's found his escape, his spirit set free A beacon of hope, for all to see
