Free To Fly

Do you want to own me?

Do you wish me to die?

That will surely happen

If you decide to try.



No living thing should be

Restricted in a cage.

Leave it alone to live

To its natural age.



So do not confine me-

Even those thoughts can bind.

Let my wings test the air,

My own life I must find.



If you love me, open.

Do not grasp and restrict

Nothing says I'm leaving

You are the one I've picked.



Just remember, 'Freedom',

And please always comply.

Whatever happens, Love,

I must be free to fly.
