The Caged Bird

I am a bird,

Caged in this mesh, the mesh of insecurity,

Speculation, disbelief and doubt…

I am a bird,

With many a feathers, feathers that rise,

Fly high, and spread aghast to eternity…

I am a bird,

With a mind to dream, dream of unseen horizons,

Farther lands, the ultimate sky, the deep sea…

I am a bird,

Who wishes to fly, fly so far beyond wonders,

So much to see yet, so much to know…

I am a bird,

Whose feathers have been cut, now strangled,

In this unending mesh, so confused, unable to fly…

I am a bird,

Who wishes to break, break the fog of this choking uncertainty,

A see with my eyes, clear and clean, the world beyond the closed cage…

I am a bird,

Whose thoughts have been blocked,

Blocked in the hurdle of fear and anxiety…

I wish to fly, rise high,

Sing my song aloud, dance my will around,

To be free again, in this big wide world…
