What do you think this poem is about?

.. I Fly Away..........................(new version)

Life's celestial shores
Traps me! Like prison bars
I fall as a victim
To it's bitter roots
Struggling, fighting
To swallow some juice
Behind life's doors
I wear the black suit
Sadness sits on their face
Like birds I fly away
To a land of gladness
Where joy never ends.
