02. A Songbird's Cage

Emotion rises, falls as I arise.

Emotion fills me, it’s all that I have.

Emotion stirs, emotion, deep inside.

It is all that I am, my truest craft.

Repeating such a word, misunderstood.

And yet I feel it deeply, every time.

Within my heart, it lingers, like a flood.

In all my art, emotions blend with rhyme.

I do not try to hide the words that bleed.

Because life is truly a play on hearts.

And with deep feelings, we stage our next scene.

And with that in mind, we act out our parts.

The play of hearts, we take the center stage.

We dance to drama in a songbird’s cage.
