Poem Title:
Poem
The thoughts in my mind run rampant as I walk around in a rage It’s like I’m continuous writing chapters in my life but I can’t even understand what lies on the page I feel trapped and concealed, like a humming bird trapped in a cage But I just want to be free and fly out into the world happily, instead of letting this confinement drive me crazy unto a rampage The days and the hours past and my life seems like clockwork I wake up, get myself together, eat, relax for a while, then I’m on the way to work … And the time in-between I try to find some enjoyment of my day…. And when I do find that happiness, something always washes it away… What the hell is going on? My mind and my heart shout… I know what I feel, and want…but to express it feels impossible, and my actions are hindered towards letting it out A closed mouth doesn’t get fed, I always say… But damn I’m trying to eat until I’m full but instead…it feels like apart of me is withering away... I embody my thoughts and transgress through hardships presented through this hard life… I’m always aware that someone always has it worse, but yet I still find myself feeling like no one can feel my pain, my aches, struggles or strife My thoughts run rampant, but they are full of rage and I want to be free… Wondering if the owner of this cage could unlock this boundary with that sacred key, and let this humming bird fly free…. At some point and time we all feel trapped and confused, and don’t know what to do… But if we are instilled in our beliefs and keep faith, then we know the great man above will come through… No longer will I let this confinement transform me into a person of misery, Or unhappiness that just creates moments in life that I will once regret… If life serves me lemons, then I’ll make lemonade and no matter the situation, I will make the best of it… So in due time and with patience, I’ll be unleashed from this cage and set free… And instead of having all negatives surrounding me, I will make a positive impact on someone’s life and those who do see… Then I will complete my happiness to a long lasting legacy… I’m finally FREE!!
