Chained

Every time I open it

and I see that three-legged letter

my heart starts racing.

I know what’s coming, I just know!

its meaning, and the story behind,

for I feel equally, at the same time.

I’m never wrong!

Why do I feel so much?

Have I been cursed?

I want to be free from these chains!

I can’t speak.

I can’t utter a word.

Overwhelmed with emotion,

I paralyze.

And I wait.
