Fettered and
chained, suffocated was I
Just yearned to take wings and fly...
The blazing sun
warned me
but the twinkling stars beckoned me...
In such a dilemma
was I
Indecisive, time just passed by...
No hands to hold, no
loving embrace
Adrift, rudderless, in the ocean of loneliness...
Unheard, unseen,
silently I did cry
Shriveling within, slowly was I...
The heart shattered, the
spirit wouldn't give up
Just a loving friend was not asking for much...
Broke the cocoon,
free was I
Just flitting around like a butterfly...
A loving friend I
did find
Ever so caring, supporting and kind...
In this
companionship so happy
was I
Till he severed the cord that did us tie...
Now I ask why did I
take wings
From shadows I departed, to shadows did it me bring...
I just wanted a
handful of the sky
But to this eternal loneliness, fated was I...
Cell walls built by
society I had dared to breach
So, quickly and unjustly, it did me impeach...
Bitter sweet
memories of times gone by
Just an earthbound misfit, doomed was I...
