A cage...
Bars of gold and silver going high and might.
The air is thick, suffocating slow,
It presses down, but no one will know.
If I try to fly, I might touch the sky,
But the wings are clipped, the ceiling too high.
I walk in circles, endless and tight,
Around and around—trapped in the night.
Why? Who dares to say?
The bars laugh; they’re here to stay.A chain...
Black and white, forged in whispers, a silent groan.
Coiled like serpents around my throat,
A phantom's grip, no way to float.
It stops the heart, then lets it race,
Tightens slowly, leaving no trace.
You scream, you leap,
But it pulls you deep.A voice...
Sticky with honey, sickly sweet,
Promises whispered, no escape from deceit.
It echoes low, laced with dread,
Words of love—or things unsaid?
They twist and turn, sharp and keen.
A smile, a lie—too close to trust,
It speaks of love, but it’s only dust.Nothing yet a lot in this cage...
A prison built from shimmering gold,
Chains that tighten, growing bold.
Shadows flicker, whispers crawl,
You hear them...but no one hears you.
