Bound

Shackled by the past.

Chains bound to ankles like an imprisoned slave.

You have the right to be free, but are unable to exercise this right of passage that should be afforded to every human.

You long to taste the future, you can almost feel it on tip of your tongue.

The oasis is but a mirage.

An elaborate fantasy.

Wanting to move forward, but the pasts shadow looms ominously.

Where you step, it follows.

The truth is a somewhat bitter pill to swallow.

Your card has been marked, or has it.

Has your past defined your future?
