Once saw a bird in the cage
Singing like a sad opera singer on the stage
Larynx roaring while the Eyes closed
He might be thinking of flying, I supposed
Opened the doors, I gave him the chance
But he just sat and thought, without even a glance
Leave this prison, open your wings
You can be the king of kings
A mockery smile he made
No more to my help was paid
As if seeing a mate phantom
Said the color of desire has left my heart sanctum
The sky is likely blue and wide
The wings are instrument on air I ride
What the fly needs is desire
Without desire the heaven is full of fire
