Poetry In Every Emotion

23. I know why the caged bird does not sing...

~*~

Curious little mind of a tiny baby
showing unbiased affection,

Not knowing the helplessness of a tiny little caged bird.

Not knowing that he is in an unascertained cage already,

Subjected to the cruel incarceration of family and society,

Waiting to rip off his wings and impair his freedom
Of thought, action, speech and existence.
