A girl who stays near the line,
a caged bird.
A spirit stripped of its mind
trapped-cursed-
fighting for a glimpse of sunlight-
fighting for the world outside.
Chained--reprimanded--she walks into the sunlight.
the chain clinks when her feet make out five steps-too far
her eyes can see the distant mountains, the distant skies-
what did she fight so hard for
There's no difference from the inside and out
while she loses everyone else she manages to find herself
every choice has a sacrifice
every move is a loss
yet she won't look back,
no matter the cracks in her soul
or the knives in her heart,
she'll never stop.
