Closed In
And then I was in a cage lost in thought and lost in grief,
This cage is the only home I’ve ever had,
When I was happy or when I was sad,
This cage is the only home I will ever have.
My memory will fade when my death is near
Some will laugh and some will cry,
But all I know is that I will die,
I will die here in this cage.
My comfort is pain,
And my tears are acid,
My difference is clear,
But I don’t care I am always placid.
I will never be free,
But I hope someday my kin will be,
But for now I will stay in my cage alone as one can be.
