The Cage

Trapped in my cage,
for days and days,
people have the cruelest ways,
crying loud,
crying long,
no one stops to hear my song,
sleepless nights,
hurtful fights,
what crime did I commit?
Where did I go wrong?
Killing words,
taped down wings,
no wonder why the caged bird sings,
where's my trial,
where's my judge,
please help these wretched locks wont budge!
cries in anger,
cries in vain,
tired of this endless pain

I wrote this because one night I was listening to the news and I heard something about abused children and I wish it could stop but the news inspired this poem so yeah hope you liked it
