This entry is part 6 of 6 in the series When I was 14

In a cage 

Struggling 

To get out

Helpless

Blind to the fact

A Bird

Without his mind

Outside

Would not survive

To and fro

He flew

Looking

At the blue sky

Looking 

For the light

Not noticing

The deadly grounds

With all its hounds

He had heard

Once

About the outside

About freedom

About the past 

He fought 

To reach out

To reach 

That promised light

Suddenly 

The door opened wide

With all his might

He was a-flight

Singing

Playing 

for nights

Swaying 

Left and right

To and fro

He flew

Searching 

For the light

Searching 

For that freedom

Searching 

For a dream

For his past

Alas

He did not last

A brid 

Outside

Alone 

For long 

A-cast

Will not 

Can not

Survive 

    When I was 14
