I
I am nothing but a bird
Stuck in a shabby cage
Freedom, not yet earned
Because I am still not of age
But, one day, was left free
Free from the shabby cage
From my shackles, I flee
Because I am already of age
To get out of this cage
II
Little did I know
How outside was daunting
Unfamiliarity seems to show
That I began wanting
Wanting the former solace
That I once always felt
Back in my comfort place
No worries, I had dealt
When I was still in that cage
III
Now, I have returned
Back to the shabby cage
Though I have learned
That this shabby cage
Gave me protection
From the danger of outdoors
Realized all the affection
Inside these cage’s doors
Was all I had needed
