Caged Bird

Caged
You're to release me.
Not what Bird wants.
Must this place be a trap?
Where is that paradise,
The one you promised
When you opened the door.
Beckoned me in.
You let me taste perfection
Only to tear it away
Without a word.

Wonderland faded
The prison now unveiled.
Bird must know why.
Only wants to know
Where perfection broke,
And how.

Perfection
On to destruction.
The interior disolves
To nothing.

I don't want to be free
Only accepted.
Bird is broken,
Needs a new heart.
Maybe yours?

Please just show me
Either way.
Time is wearing thin
But the scars never will.

Hello to Haiku

If you've read much of my blog, you've realized I enjoy writing poetry. Well, I'm trying out hiaku, so wish me luck!
Rules: 3 lines: The first has five syllables, the second has seven, and the third has five.
Here goes nothing!

Strength will be taken
Only when desire to know
Is willingly lost.

Believing is known
The simplest of concepts,
Yet hardest of acts.

Lacks a beginning,
This life we all keep forging,
Also lacks an end.

We push for success,
All crying out for a change,
Yet scarce few will act.

Life gets to be hard,
We want to quit. At these times
We return to dreams.

Standing as a stone,
True to what I believe in.
I know who to be.


Well, that was fun! :)

If you look around at our mad world and just listen for a while, you will notice that it has it's own rythm, it's own flow... It's own sort of poetry. Even through the pain and the madness, there is a sort of beauty in it.
