Freedom's Flight

As fragile as a butterfly's wing Trapped in a cage unable to sing Free to hate but forbidden to love Passion flows freely within her blood Red roses of shame blossom upon her cheeks Deep within her hope must seek Fleeting now like the sun's last rays Disappearing now to return another day Night desends and darkness surrounds Forever trapped, eternally bound A promise that she could never keep The lies take their toll, piling in a heap Her sanity slowly disappears She is consumed by all of her fears Scared to love and scared to hate Desperately searching for the secret gate Her pathway from this evil place Freedom so close she can almost taste Not impossible she heads for the light A great adventure, her miraculous flight Never stopping till she is free Through the door she is able to see A wonderous new world, her destiny A wonderful new person she is able to be Her past is behind, her futures ahead Maybe now her heart will mend.
