Songs of Freedom

Children's laughter echo through my ears,

Erasing my mind of all the doubt and fears,

The cold rusty chains hold me in place,

I want to see, smell, touch, feel my heart race,

Day after day I watch the moon rise and fall,

Yet I still remain in chains listening to the wolves call.


A sweet lavender scent fills the lonely air,

People singing songs in the distance is what I hear,

I gaze up at the starry sky,

And couldn't help but wonder why,

That I am trapped in the dark with no light,

But no I will never surrender; I will persevere and win this fight.
