Description
I am a bird trapped in a cageNo room to spread my wings
These beautiful gold bars
They are a nightmare in the day
The sun shines down
Illuminating the bars
Taunting me
It knows my will to fly is strong
But this cage is stronger
Twelve hours of torture
I sit and wish to fly off into the sun like all the others
To see everything like all the others
But when the sun falls
And Luna takes its place
The eternal fire inside me burns at it strongest
The gold bars that taunted me rust
My wings rise up taking my body with it
The night's cool breeze brings me such joy
I forget my troubles of the day
As I soar towards Luna
My vision returns
And I can see that I am not alone
Twelve hours of pleasure
I fly till I see the sun's return
I must return to that hideous cage again
But this time my experience shall be different
As I return behind the golden bars
I take with me the knowledge
That I am not the only bird that lives for the night
And is tortured by this cage during the day
As I sit behind these golden bars
I will always remember that
I am one of many
And many are one of me
