Caged
Under the sliveryglow of the moonlight, I discern faint whispers and glimpse elusive shadows.
The voices bekon to me, and the shadows envelop me.
Does my heart race from fear, or does it race with excitement?
A gentle kiss brushed upon my cheek like a fleeting breeze.
The words of love danced upon my ear like sweet melody.
My heart raced against my chest, yearning to break free.
Freedom from this cage is not meant to be.
About this poem
I had mixed feelings and uncertainty about piece or maybe my whole life.
