I'm Free

Or Am I Really

By Honesty AmaniPublished 7 years ago 1 min read

Chained to a arm less chair

i cannot leave

locked in a open cage

i am not free

eyes wide open

i cannot see

screaming my loudest

i can't hear me

hands so cold , it holds four keys

unlock one lock ,unlock two`

i'm out the cage ,what do i do

i'm stuck at a crossword

follow my heart , follow my soul

middle lane i feel it in my toes

unlock four lock , unlock four

wrong way i feel into a hole

i cannot go , i cannot leave

i close my eyes , i go to sleep

i wake up i finally can see

i'm back in the chair

back in the cage

back where i started

now my hands hold 5 keys

each attempt another key

i can finally hear me

i am free
