Free Myself

Trapped like a caged bird Can’t see the beautiful sun That used to dry my wetted wings I am dreaming of the day I could be free and fly high In the blue and shiny sky Nevertheless I am hopeful Because I realize that the keys are in my possession But I don’t know where I hide them I guess I hide them somewhere deep and secure Shall I look into my soul, into my mind or into my heart? Because those are the deepest and safest part of myself I am confident and optimistic For the keys are not in somebody else’s hands So I know now that I can get free by myself It may take a long time But I am patient and I am ready to wait, For that day will be the greatest one in my life.
