Analysis of Linked To Nowhere
Hear my whimper, as estates bellow
Locked the ignited me
As her face hollow as hollow
I cannot, cannot be set free
Remember the chants she made
As all my hopes in wane
I am but a slave of my brain
To love, I would fain.
She, who smiled at estranged fates
As my felon heart succors
Hoping it would intertwine our fates
With faith to rend away death's estates.
Never be I twain to her
Though chained, I feel this sever
Though riveted, my life to her
I am linked to nowhere...
