Uncaged Heart

Love tore down carefully built walls
I've been down the road of romance before
blissful at first then strained and unhappy
no energy left for trying 
a caged bird

electric fences slowly rooting from the core 
icy shards sticking through ribs
a caged heart finding wing
let go of all emotions of love
set free at last
