She dreamed of love, eyes opened wide,
But fate sealed bars, she couldn't slide.
A tender heart with a bond so pure,
Locked in chains, forever to endure.
World marched forward, but not her flame, Even in pain, she whispered his name. Their story turned to dust, hope grew thin, Engulfing her light, slowly from within.
He never knew the price she paid,
The quiet tears, the vows she made.
Years of torment, bound to a bed,
Finally freed but mentally dead.
