Caged

 

Caged like an animal, I'm not free,

Watchers pass by, they can't help me,

Four walls surround me, closer each age,

When will I be let out to discover the change,

How will I learn from my mistakes?

If I never get the chance to try and play,

"It's only for your best", they will say,

Also believing the right way is their way,

Who will listen to me after all I'm only young,

Everything I do in their eyes is wrong,

It's like they speak a different tounge,

The same blood but beat a different drum,

Only time will tell if I will be let out these bars,

And gain the freedom I deserve which is too far,

Experiences? I have none,

Life? I don't think I got one,

Rebell will only make them stronger,

And being in this cage will seem much longer,

I don't wanna be locked up tight and waiting,

Sometimes late at night I'm thinking of escaping,

Looking out this window I wonder how it feels,

To be on the other side looking in...

Stuck

 

Seems that everytime I close my eyes you cross my mind,

And I can't help but let you be the one to run my life,

Whatever you say goes in this relationship we have,

And I let you break my heart cause you know I got it bad,

It doesn't affect you how many tears come down my cheek,

And what I want and need isn't as important as your needs,

But I still let you walk all over me and I always try to leave,

It seems you took all of my strengths and replaced it with the weaks,

I pray each night hoping someone would come and help,

And take me from all this drama, pain and burning hell,

I hate to blame anyone for the out comes of my life,

But I know whats wrong and I know you were never right,

How naive and childish was I to let you take me away,

Persuaded that we were inlove and always will stay,

Now I sit here knowing I dug the hole too deep,

Fell in and now I'm stuck some one please help me...

I know what the caged bird feels.

When the sun is bright on the upland slopes;

When the wind stirs soft through the springing grass,

And the river flows like a stream of glass;

When the first bird sings and the first bud opens.

And the faint perfume from its chalice steals--

I know what the caged bird feels!

 

I know why the caged bird beats her wings

Till its blood is red on the cruel bars;

For she must fly back to her perch and cling!

 

And a pain still throbs in the old, old scars

And they pulse again with a keener sting--

I know why she beats her wings!

 

I know why the caged bird sings,

When her wing is bruised and her bosom sore,--

When she beats her bars and she would be free;

It is not a carol of joy or glee,

But a prayer that she sends from her heart's deep core,

But a plea, that upward to Heaven she flings--

I know why the caged bird sings!

^good stuff^

That was profound the way you excpress that peice.

Caged huh___feelin' da vibe.

....

Am in upnorth cage livin' with quite rage!

On stage they rape my thoughts; than give me low rate.

As if my life was made by mistake; they ach when ever I come around.

My tone is pure, I cure the sick who got lost; not knowing they walking on a battle ground.

No gun play, few blood shed and a deadly silent sound.

Politically wrong, my black power is less killing one another is useless far from being strong!

I hold on.

Hold on to the bars of my cage; contiplate till my next page since my life was writen.

As I age I keep my face straight, no play am serving time.

All four courners and in my head is where the devil is sitting.

I fight till blood is what am spitting.

Crack a joke to provoke the law they wrote

to get me to choke! they say my mine is a crime.

I say my knowledge is double the dime,

Now I rhyme in sense soo complex they wont get me!

I see them plotting plans to set me; but I get

Get away away everytime they let me-

itinerate on nights path,

intinerant between loop holes.

the back doors in their laws_ Yo-am gone to vandalize every cross~ I share vision, see for your sake!

Cause we all in the same cage!

Its up to you to maintain with a minimum wage~

PeaceMiddleEast!

DARK CHILD

 

She sits in a gloomy room,

Shrivelling with cold and doom

She utters with weeps as thoughts recede,

And destined to nothing less than sorrow and deceive.

 

Lost in her own mind

She’s too weak to fight back and only flows with the tide

The pain with each breath seems to be much stronger,

And fate assures this pain to prolong much longer.

 

Ever since she could remember,

She was a child of bliss and tender,

Her face so delicate, sweet as the doves,

Always smiling, its aim was to spread love.

 

Her attacker couldn’t care less of her

Taking the blame she’s left to bear,

“ Who will listen after all?” she cries,

The earlier I tell, the earlier I die.

 

“ It’s only for the best”, they will say

Believing their way is going to repay

All that’s been possessed and taken away

Expecting her to just forget like it’s some childs play.

 

Too hard to forgive the tears shed,

Too hard to forget how much she bled

She doesn’t know how to deal with all the fear

And the man whose voice so crystal clear.

 

Meanwhile on the other side of the city

Her friend too is experiencing the same misery

Once like precious stones, living in vain,

They both now share and endure the same pain.

Thank you for the contribution Deadly_Vision and Rayaana (nice name by the way).

 

After reading Rayaana's post, which was very good, I just had to reply back. Here it is:

Call On Me

 

There are more ways to communicate,

Then to give and state,

Don't underestimate,

I vow that I'll be there if you call on me,

A vow that I can keep,

Something like a testimony,

Blocked by the bars that surround you?

I'll come through,

I'll be with you,

Don't shed a tear let me do the work,

I know when it hurts,

But that's how life works,

Don't stress this, just learn from it,

Call on me dark child I'll be waiting,

I'm still here if you hesitating,

One hand held out for you to grab on,

The other holding a napkin to cry on,

Dark child be strong,

You will know in time where you belong,

"Who will listen after all?" I'm listening,

I won't turn the other cheek

Like I said you can call on me...

[silent-sistah]

hand that lockes the cage

 

My tummy turns; my blood boils with rage,

I hate the hand that locks the cage!

 

So trapped this hand makes you feel,

Your innocence and childhood it steals,

Nowhere to turn and nowhere to run,

What happened to childhood being fun?

 

Why can't it just leave me alone?

Someone let me out this cage and home,

I’d feel safer left alone to death,

Or if the hand was left no breath,

 

I sit here reading this page,

I can’t stand the hands that lock our cage!

 

With nowhere to hide, I contemplated suicide,

Under the carpet 'twas shoved, by those I did confide,

This world’s too cold and lonely, I’m too scared to sleep,

Late at night, wide-awake in my pillow I do weep.

 

I’ve been pushed too far; I come to a stage

I damn the hand that locked my cage!

 

I’ve felt your pain; I feel your sorrow, I dream maybe 2morrow,

My right hand/head/shoulder, whichever u need and desire, you feel free to borrow,

I was inside and now I’m out,

I want to you to know without a doubt,

If it comes to you, that wretched hand,

Call me! For forever by your side I’ll stand.

 

Now I am strong, free and of age,

I’ll curse out loud, those hands that dare to lock your cage!
