my heart was cold
bound and chained
all i felt was cold
aged by time
i grew daily old
living here inside the hole
one day i took another look
as the preacher gave us all
the book
i read the words
and and i found light
GODS dove apppeared
and saved me tonight

Bound and chained we tend to be mostly, that is until we can within ourselves gain the strength to lift the heavy load from our hearts. Though usually we are old and frail before we realize that we always had the strength to lift our game.

Bound but free says a lot...just for me. Sometimes it's chained...really stunning.
Thanks for your comments on 40 love. When you hit the court and love's spinnin' all around; be careful 'cause it just might be 40 Love. -c
