OPEN THE LOCK I hear the caged bird singing The sounds of its pain Creating a violent ringing <3 When all it takes is one of the flock To fly on down and open the lock <3 The bird will rise And grow as big as the sun As it sways around Having so much fun <3 The bird silently cries As it hopes to fly off into the skies <3 It knows it can't Escape to the infinite plane Its feet begin to plant As it realizes it will forever stay the same <3 Then a light begins to shine bright It feels the breeze and thinks it is a tease <3 Its skin was exposed It became confused It opens its eyes, not realizing they were closed <3 But that wouldn't make sense How is that possible, unless... <3 All it took was one of the flock To fly down and open the lock By Ava Penizotto 33
