Caged
CAGED
Death knocked on my door
In what seemed like a wraith
I wailed in fear
Sought for grace in every place
Yet in my heart I knew
I was caged in what seemed like fate
The tunnels of life became dark and strange
I knelt down with a riddled heart
And pleaded to God not to let my soul weep in vast
While death stood at the glance of my flesh, in need of my soul
The sun sank in the woods nest
The days went to the West
The moon closed her eyes to rest
The sky stood in her chest
And the oceans traced the East
My heart dropped, and my face became a wreck
Yet still I stayed with recondite faith
In the range of God
Pleading for anew anfractuous life
