Black Iron Cage
Stuck in an iron cage,
There is no way out,
Decorate all you want,
Put some blankets up,
To hide the bars,
A bowl of water,
A bowl of food,
It doesn't hide the iron bars,
It doesn't stop the pain,
Why won't someone show me mercy,
Either free me,
Or shoot me,
It doesn't matter,
As long as I'm no longer,
In that black iron cage,
That everyone calls my shelter,
Nobody hears my screams,
My whines,
My whimpers,
My agony,
My anger,
Or my shame,
Am I mute,
Or has everyone gone deaf,
Or cold,
Am I alone in a world of silence,
My blood is fresh,
My life is new,
But I must be cursed,
To never live it,
To always be trapped,
In a black iron cage. ~End
