In my breastA
A wail of griefB
Without any spark or flashC
Alone survivesD
Passionless ineffectualE
A free man is in prison todayF
Without a spear or a swordG
Regret overwhelms meH
And also my strategyH
My heartI
Is drawn by instinct to chainsJ
Perhaps my sword was of the same steelK
Once I had a two edged swordG
It turned into the chains that shackle me nowL
How whimsical and indifferentM
Is the Author of fatesN
