A Victim of Love

Written from a woman's perspective...
 

Slap a padlock on my mind

If you can only but try;

My thoughts cannot be confined,

My freedom you won’t deny.

Am I so small, so fragile a Bird

Unnoticed, with a broken wing?

So weak to utter a noble word,

Unable to sweetly sing?

No! There’s so much to learn,

Inside there’s a tender heart;

Passion’s deep within do burn,

Just haven’t had chance to start.

Don’t think you can control

My life in every way,

I am a patient, but strong soul

Just waiting for the day

When retribution will call,

Then release, as from a cage

And freedom to walk so tall

With no more seething rage.
