Freedom

I see an eagle inside you.
Behind your gleaming blue eyes
Crushed beneath your love for me
Wanting to sore through the skies

I see a lion inside you
Imprisoned in my warm hands
Screaming in the pain i cause 
Yearning the broad open lands

I see it deep inside you
A soul so, wild and free
But tell me how, my sweet love
I grant this ferocious plea.
