It seems that since I knew you,
You held behind your back,
A cage to trap me unawares
With door ajar a crack.
And as I grew to know you more,
Your scheme was growing too,
Then suddenly the door was wide
As, headfirst, I fell through.
So here I dwell within the bars,
Shut up without a key.
Jailed, penned, enclosed and snared;
Caged but flying free.

I would like to translate this poem
The opposite of 'caged' to me for here you are quite happy to be so... (Check out my 'Clipped Wings' for a different viewpoint) HG: -) xx
