. . artwork for sale by ShAy Black . “uncaging these thoughts” . thoughts hold on like a spirit that can’t move on creeping, passing time through the cerebral of my mind keeping me caged to an unrelentless cycle of sadness bound, silence coils the voice inside of me to be silent to meditate to find peace within to release my pain tears dripping from my eyes i’m a weeping willow caged within many thoughts but i’m strong still trying to break free tho trying to find a way to flap my wings to find quiet time inside this mind that runs wild like the wind i breathe in deeply briefly expanding my mind it fills me with clarity and understanding power is in me to be free Maya Angelou said it best: “But a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream his wings are clipped and his feet are tied so he opens his throat to sing” i am that of a caged bird trying to be free, happy i just have to choose to be sad days will come i just have to choose not to stay there . . ©ShAy Black 2017/All rights reserved . . #iamshayblack #shayblack #poetry #poetry247 #poetrycreateschange #poetryisart #iamapoetess #artwork #artworkforsale #paintings
