While greenery becomes a spreading fire Crisp leaves cover the forest floor The brisk winds invariably fuel my desire To have the freedom I did before Crisp leaves cover the forest floor The days flow quickly, I feel I must run To have the freedom I had before To enjoy this season for laughing and fun The days flow quickly, I feel I must run Instead of vanishing with not a trace To enjoy this season of laughing and fun I have to stop running from fears I must face Instead of vanishing with not a trace Losing my youth to infinite lies I have to stop running from fears I must face Quit being this coward, a me I despise Losing my youth to infinite lies My pride had fallen like blazing leaves from the trees Quit being this coward, a me I despise I'll come back not caged, but a bird in the cool breeze My pride had fallen like blazing leaves from the trees The brisk winds invariably fuel my desire To come back not caged, but joyous and free in the breeze While greenery becomes a spreading fire ------------------ "Despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in a cage." -Billy Corgan- |

Like star fairy said, I absolutely love the structure of this poem! And the imagery is great. All in all, a very good poem. I like! |
