The Imprisoned King

I’m bounded by chains
that come from the ground
I’m stuck in one place
I can’t move around.
I’m in a dark cave
I cannot be found
I cannot make noise
not even one sound
for bears and wolves
would come and surround.
I’ve lost track of days
in thoughts I have drowned
I’m feeling so weak
I’ve lost many pounds.
I was to be king
about to be crowned
A man of importance
but now I’m a clown
who’s bounded by chains
that come from the ground…
