Few words
escaped my clamped cage
grouping together
They climbed up on the stage
They were incited
by the persuasive thought
One that ignited the mind
to go boldly, beyond the taught
In a group
there is a shared courage
Afraid and trembling, no more
They stand together on the stage
Up on the stage
They gather up in a sentence
Speaking loud and clear
Fearlessly breaking the learnt pretence
And then they spoke
to the many ears
Some moved, in melancholy
Some shedding customary tears
The thought had moved
now it echoed in other minds
The words are resonating
And they are no longer just mine
Out of the cage
In the air
Singing along
Without a care

Yes. They travel and make home in many hearts. Till they are not ‘only yours’. That’s when they echo and fill the world.

Interesting that you used this as a cage…something I never thought of at all!

Isn’t there a cage in all of us. Where we hide our phrases. Keeping them trapped as ours. And then once they escape, on an utterance, they spread and fill the world
