My home's my castle and my dreams-
my breath of easy reach.
My shoulders are too fragile,
but I put on stronger wings and try...
I try to spread them free inside
my dome, my fort, my bastion, but
I can't deny the wanted freedom,
the destiny to spread
beyond two thousand square feet.
Light sneaks in with early kitty steps,
with which I’d like to play for longer,
before I merge into the spinning circle
of another day.
Restraint behind the wheel,
I feel the breeze bypassing,
leaving me sustained
with cup of uninspired coffee,
and singled-out provoked pretence.
Canned inside the elevator
we are slowly crawling up,
but inside me wants to scream,
to bang the doors to open.
We couldn't possibly be reaching far-
above stiffed substance and exhausting suits
is the cement ceiling burying the stars.
I know my shadow is gone at night,
when thousand ripples from within
are blasting free.
I let the rain wash off my worries;
the moon- embrace my tired eyes.
It’s only me beyond the chains,
beyond the old allusions,
into the open sky-
I fly.
