The Cage

The Cage… The Cage… I am caged in a body, shackled with my pain. One of these days, I’ll break this rusty old chain. I will be so happy, flying in a breeze, In the realm of light, dancing as its rain. In the garden, I will chase the butterflies, I will laugh, and I will play with no complain. I will be so drunk drinking Morning Dew, I will run with the wind, breaking my old cane. There will be no tears, no more restless nights, Only love will be there; not else shall remain. Trust me, my dear, escape from your cage. The cage, full of greed, always dies in vain. Come with me, my friend; I know where it ends. It is filled with our love; it’s hard to explain. Our pain will be cured; our thirst will be quenched, If you do not drink, you must be insane. You will be everywhere, here and over there, You have never again had worries or pain. A thousand mysteries all will be child’s play, Your knowledge will be all; all you shall obtain. Trust “Haloo” he knows death also will pass, The soul will be the one destined to contain. 6/23/2017 Haloo * I named this painting " The Cage". It is acrylic on canvas.
