Breaking out

Breaking out of my cage of thorns and brambles feels so good, like a lighter part of me broke free forever. Breaking out feels good, like a bird breaking out of its cage. Leaving its captor behind it flies happily away and up into the sky to live happily ever after.

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist,and I’d love to discuss the possibility of bringing this poem to life if you're ever interested.
