A trapped bird in a solitary confinement <br />Busted wings, sodden with blood <br />Frozen tears and comatose spirit <br />The soul and the body naysay each other <br />The body is worn out, can't put up with more <br />The soul still buoyant, believes in a better tomorrow <br />A combat going on between the soul and the body <br />Whichever may win the trounce is for the bird <br />If the bird dies, a disgruntled ghost remains <br />With unfulfilled desires packed within <br />If the bird lives, the body does suffer <br />With agonizing pain, it cries within <br />Now what could be the justice and how should be its fate? <br />The pathetic bird is stuck up in this crucial maze<br /><br />Kavitha Krishnamurthy<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-trapped-bird/
