Holding them down
Against a wall
From running free
Drag at their time
Drain their energy
Hold their dedication
My broken body is
Their rusted chain
Their love for me
Is a key they won’t use
To go free
Sympathy is warden
That holds them bound
To my manacle being
My dependent carcass
Is their albatross
