BOUND

BOUND

Have you even dared ?

To survive like a prisoner

Of one's own thoughts and own dreams

Holding up against the world;

Yet smiling so wide and holding up the screams

Where freedom is not what you are gifted of;

But struggles and fears are

Where every decision is a compromise,

Where every path upon you step

Is what you despise

And yet you are to stay aput

Despite all your hues and cries

A world where you are your own culprit

Just because you wanted to chase your dreams

Just because you couldn't keep hold off those screams

You are a bird and quite a beautiful one

Chosen to look above the sky and wish

To soar up high above those clouds

But alas! Not all birds are meant to fly

In depths of trees, rather so perfectly hiding

Tuning up the tones, sad song they sing

Of how they lack their fairy wing

And freedom to fly up all full swing!
