Prison Bars Of Life

My Poems Written By: Paqtism
These prison bars I sit behind from which there is no escape,
Why didn't I get a second chance but, now it's too late.
I tried to live my master's way to put instinct aside,
To disobey meant punishment and oh, how hard I tried.
I didn't mean to trash the house I did it for fun,
It's boring being in the house with no place to run.
And when i get to go outdoors you put me on a chain,
I'd run around in circles till you come out again.
Uh oh, she found the hole I dug up to keep myself cool,
She beat me with her balled up fists oh, why is she so cruel?
My tail tucked between my legs I'm so scared to sneeze,
It doesn't matter what I do she's just so hard to please!
She doesn't even like the song I howl every night,
She yells "shut up", and out she comes to start another fight.
I'm battered, bruised and all alone is this how life should be?
When all I wanted was her love and true acceptance of me.
For I can't help the way I am at times I feels so strange,
I guess I'm like my ancestors that once had roamed the range.
So, here I sit in "the hole" trapped behind these bars,
Soon to be a spirit free among the stars.
I guess I'll never understand why people act this way you see,
Give me each and every day for me just being me!
