I am stuck in this world,
Like a shackled bird.
Where I received no care,
No feelings to give nor share.
Days have come, days went by,
I was at time jealous I can’t deny.
To see people happy, not alone but with others.
Acknowledging in this world all the beautiful colors.
Encountering stress day by day,
But staying calm in every which way.
And all I could do was sit here and watch,
As my happiness slowly went down a notch.
Just as I thought there was nothing left for me,
You came into my world and made me see,
That I am not a shackled bird.
That I am not stuck in this world,
But am more of a gift to it.
I am a candle that is yet to be lit,
And once my candle is lit and bright,
There will be no more troubles in my sight.
I will be able to live,
I will be able to love and give.
I can do all the things, before I could not see,
Until you came and set my shackled bird free….
