The Cage

The Cage

A Poem by Linzey
"

Everyone has a cage their locked within. We need to understand how to look past the cage and see the piece of you held within.

"
We are always told to love beyond one's self
But what does that do to help me feel better about myself?
This cage of flesh and bone
For some it may be of fat and cellulite
For others of foreseeable ribs and cheekbones
Each wondering how to set free their mind from its physical cage
We claw away at ourselves
Emotionally
Physically
With no regard to its impact
When will we understand our cages of flesh and bone hold the most beautiful of souls
