Held captive
in your daisy chains
so fragile
yet incapable of breaking free
I envy those held
in iron shackles for
even they have more
free will than me.
It was I who choose
my own prison
lost in your far away eyes
so stepped into your snare
woven only out of air.
My cage is one without bars
but I have no more ability to leave
than a man locked behind
immovable metal doors.
I watched you weave
links of wild flowers
to slip around my wrists
knowing once it was in place
I would never walk free again
but helpless I was
to make a motion to stop
your daisy chains
from binding me.

This is an idea I have had for a while but could not figure out just how I wanted to convey, and even now I have some uncertainties about it, but over all I think I like it.

Wow. I love it. I'm not sure what constructive things I can tell you to assist you in the future though, and I'm sorry about that. But I really love it. I love the way you used daisy chains in this and how it seems so vivid and surreal.
