Caged

Metal box
No loose ends
No escape
Trapped in a structured prison, everyday is the same
no change
no change makes him crazy
his thoughts wander

Free from the cage,
free from his lack of a home
free to do as he pleases
free to fly, sing and dance
his freedom does weep, just as he

There isn't any hope for him
the only way out of this metal box...
is through another one
trapped forever
in an endless sea
of boxes
