Trapped like a bird in a cage <br />Never to be freed <br />Twenty years have past and I've bottled up all my rage <br />No visitors and nothing to do so I watch as I make myself bleed <br />Just one friend is all I need <br />Its so dark and I'm my own best friend <br />I know I'll die alone in the end <br />Another 10 years has past and my cage is rusted <br />I cough from a sickness I had gotten and I know my time is short <br />Still no friends and even I can't be trusted <br />I lay in bed knowing my time has thinned <br />I think about all the times I've sinned <br />As I lay dieing I can't help but think I could have prevented being trapped in a cage.<br /><br />Kevin Fisher<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/trapped-in-a-cage/
