Cage- by Shauni Cooper

.

You want to try?

Go on ahead

It will be futility at most

For those who have gone in

Never come out

Forever imprisoned

To torture their master

.

Many have come to this painful place

And have not survived

You are different

Special

I wish to save you from the hurt

.

For my heart is but a mere cage

Scattered ripped pieces

Etched together with lies

Stitches that cause profound

Suffering

For me and the prisoners

.

You have only scratched the delicate surface

Of what's left of

My once beating heart

Its prisoners, my memories, take a toll on me

Punishing me for ever trusting

And loving in the first place

.

You are brave

To enter this dreadful cage

.

You begin your journey

And venture through my barriers

Stitching and mending me

To what I once was before

Happy

.

I thought I was broken beyond repair

Yet you managed to fix me

You did not give up

The cage is destroyed, my heart beats again

I feel whole, complete

With you, my new journey begins…
