Bird Cage
I don't know why or how, but there's an invisible bird cage surrounding me. Limiting where I can go. Nothing is actually stopping me. It's almost like an invisible force that I can't stop. It traps me. At first it was rather large so I didn't mind. But with each passing day, it feels like it's getting smaller and shrinking around me. I can't help but wonder, is this the end? Will I forever remain trapped inside this cage with all those whom I despise? The ones who don't understand. The ones who don't care and spat insults. The ones who can leave the cage at will. Why am I stuck here? And just when did the cage first form? I will never know the answers. I am a captive within my own neighborhood. Only able to leave when accompanied by a friend. But that seldom happens. After all, I am the one who is Odd, Weird, Unsightly, Unwanted And Unnecessary to others. I will remain in my invisible cage until I rot with old age. No matter how much I wish to leave, that is so. I want to escape. I have to, or else I'll remain ever trapped. Sadly the key to my cage's lock is just outside the wall's barriers. So my being will be forever incased in this sorrow.
