Caged Me! Poem by Ameera Shah

I wanna be a free bird, I want to fly
For hours and life, higher than the sky.
They say you can't, they tell me my flaws
But dreams can; t be chosen, they don't know laws.
I wanna be a happy soul, I don't want to cry
Wipe those tears and give a try.
Close your eyes and take a deep breathe,
now smile that big as you still have teeth.
Escaping from the clutches was never so easy
but the desire and struggle helped me free
now every page of my diary have a hint of you,
And i break when i realize i have fallen for the cage,
from which i flew.: '(
