Tight cage


Grasp me tightly Mother, do not let me go. I can not risk flying away like a Bird. You keep me here and I love it. Most people wouldn’t love their Cage. But you make it feel Beautiful, to be trapped, Shaped, and bent to Fit. Space was and never will be a word I’m familiar with. Inside you is all Black and I no longer wish to see color.
