Caged

Broken by their word you try, oh, try to fly you are but a caged bird who looks longing to the sky. Kept under lock and key your freedom denied oh poor little birdie so many rules you must abide Where will you hide when there a four walls cutting your flight your wings left untried will your soul survive this blight? She broke your bonds little birdie now fly free to her words your heart responds Fly free out of this doomed city Healed through her love set free into the blue sky now soar high, go above fulfill your desire fly, oh, fly sky high

Whilst lovely as a poem just on it's face value I wonder if there is some comment about growing up and escaping parental control in here, it works for me on both levels. Nicely done.
