Here I be

trapped with freedom

Here I be

The wind through the willows

The birds through the windows

As free as the clouds, the grass, the sea

But here I be

Unable to fly and unable to see

Left in the dark with a lock but no key

The bees know to buzz and the trees know to sway

But how can I find my own way?

They say to have peace

But it’s all just a tease

Something unachieved

I feel as though I’m trapped

In chains, I am wrapped

Is it an impossible feat?

No way to win, unable to retreat

So here I remain

The same as I came

The wind through the willows

The birds through the windows
