There are words that for some reason
I have never said
Oh the sounds and meanings of these words
Have flown bout in my head
But as the bluebird trapped and caged
That flaps to gain its freedom
Will kock the contents of its cage
To clear, opague oblivion
These words do not escape my mind
But rather flap around
And through my mouth, my white barred mouth
They knock the dismal sounds
Of poems of death and sour lament
And quotes of Eadgar Poe
I wonder if the bluebird's death
Does bing his captors woe
Why must my bluebird thoughts be caged
Untill they die of fear
Why can't I speak the words I feel
To love I hold so dear
The ones I owe the words I feel
They always seem to go
The teather line to hold them near
Reals out to slow and so
They break the line and go their way
And as they go I say
I will not let my thoughts be caged
Another single day.
