Freedom

What's the reason for this treason?

I yearn to be as free as a pigeon,

Soaring far and wide,

From night's embrace to the daytime ride.


 

I feel ensnared within this cage,

Brimming with emotions, an inner rage,

Emotions locked in, hard to express,

Secret feelings, I must confess.


 

Gazing at the azure sky so high,

It brings a tear to my eye,

Thinking I may never touch the sky,

Yet it spurs me on to try.


 

Though I stumble each time,

Is freedom truly a crime?

Nonetheless, I won't sigh,

I'll persist until the day I die.
