Uncaged
written by: Jaylee
I haven’t seen the sun in days.
To me, it feels like months or sometimes years.
7 years.
Locked away in a cage, only allowed to shine when the big buzzer sounds.
I don’t know why clouds don’t move when others do their best to get them out of the way.
I think they are too heavy.
full of water from all my pain.
There are holes in the clouds, and the rays peak through only on my best days.
And truly that’s thanks to you.
I know this is unfair you’ve done nothing to me except be the best person you could be.
I feel like I’m giving up something really great.
Something almost like fate.
I’m sorry that my heart lies in a cage.
I too wish it was different.
I am a 34 year old single mother of an almost 4 year old boy. My career doesn't allow for much down time, but I am incredibly thankful for being brought back into writing when I do get it.
