Locked inside our cage..
It is now the monsoon; And spring now changed into the past.
Time is running continuously, Where we are still locked inside our cage.
Even if it is unlocked, we will be locked behind those huge bars by our own decisions...
We strongly agreed Because we are afraid; We don't dare to fight.

Ghar (Home)
Yeh hai har kahaani ki shuruat
Yehi hai har qisse ki pehli pehchaan
Rango me lapete, deewaron me chupein
Najaane kitne panne aur baatein anjaan
Yehi hai saara maa-baap ka pyaar
Achchi seekh, sabak, asha aur ummeed ki char deewar
Yehi to bane the woh rishtein
Jinhe kehte hai hum aaj langotiyaan yaar
Kehte hai log mera ghar tha adhoora
Papa aur mere beech woh ghar tha phala-phoola
Deewaron me daag the, the kuch rooh me bhi
Woh ghar hi kya jisme ho na aansu aur khushi
Papa k haath ka khana tha roz
Seekha ek dusre ko samhaalna roz
Tha wahaan bhagwaan ka basera bhi
Sar jhukatein the unke charno me roz
Woh ghar ab bhi apni neev par khada hai
Meri saari yaadein daraaron me chupakar
Usse dur hu fir bhi hu atoot
Utne hi dararein apni hasi me chupakar
Rishta tha gehra par toota kachche dhaage sa
Yaadein thi bohot par bikhra toote kaanch sa
Jo awaazein thi sannaaton me kho gayi
Jo vishwas tha rab pe, uska bhi koi nishaan nahi
Raha kaafi deewaron k beech, woh the ghar nahi
Aur bhi yaadein bani, par un jaisa mazboot nahi
Khali sa hai ghar mera, khali sa hu mai
Pinjde me hu mai hi pinjda, mera ab koi ghar nahi

Lilith
Almost tangible,
Visible and there.
Moving, asserting
Claiming its declare.
Ablaze lay houses,
Swelter, losing fear.
Nomads scrabble,
Looking for share.
Smothering the harlot.
Her forgotten bird cages,
With dead doves, resisting,
Left unattended,
On some burning sill.
Who cried that night,
Are not sleeping, still.
False truths, fantasies,
And such witty will.
Scratched skins,
Graves left unfilled.
Lost, invisible, unseen,
Broken houses, petrified.
Massacred natheless rescued.
Through windows
With burned muntins,
Followed gazes.
"She's a monster,
Hence, banished."

Collapse
It felt heavy,
bearing that feeling
to let go of you
to let myself out
of the cages
you put me in.
I thought I needed
that closure from you,
and stepped outside
that stifling cage
only to see myself
c o l l a p s e.

Growing and change can be hard
But noticing the little cages you are in⛓
I can tell I've been asking the wrong ones
Wrong ones to my heart, friendship& dignity ♀️
I built a cage around them all
Breaking free has been so testing
But breaking piece by peace ♀️
Dropping chains each day can be tiring
Realizing the power I've given away
I want it back all of it
When you are comfortable with ways
Ways that are toxic and needy
That wont lead me to God or be sacred to my husband
That I'd tell my daughter not do & have made me shameful to myself
As I grow and start to reflect
I have wavered off my path of dreams
I have no regrets they have taught me
To look in the mirror and accept the ugly and beautiful things
More about me and life & most of all to LOVE ME
I'm not perfect but I'm fucking amazing
I'm building myself and my little empire
Cocoa butter skin, patched heart I'm here for it all -

The Sparrow and The Macaw
A sparrow, small and dour,
Slipped through the bars of the aviary
To gorge on seed and scatter fruit.
'What are you doing here?'
A voice sneered
And in a bluster of wings
A great hooked beak appeared.
The sparrow fled to a safe distance
To watch the macaw strut
And eye her with distrust.
'There's food here,' she called back,
'More than enough
To take my small fill
Without affecting you much'.
'Small or not, it's not for you'
Hissed the parrot,
Spreading wings of princely blue.
'Are there sunflower seeds and banana chips in your wilderness?
No? I thought not.
And so you do not belong in my cage.
You are wild because you cannot beguile
The human folk as I can.
What man would put you in an aviary
To look at and treasure? None.
And so you are destined to remain
In that diseased state
Of perpetual flight.'
The sparrow had heard quite enough.
And so, without waiting to bid him 'adieu',
She flew out and into the endless blue.
(Based on PΔR Suede's prompt on Poetizer)

Caged Heart...
They say our hearts are trapped inside
our ribcages disguised as protection,
But have we ever realized that
the ribcages were never a problem,
But our hearts trapped behind
the cages of our feelings being denied...

The Final Call
In the cages where rods are evil,
You trap the innocent souls,
Why can't differ an angel and a devil?
The masks worn deceive so well.
Being friends was good until it helped,
Broken diamonds begun to be better,
You watched them die and clapped,
The hurting snows were never thawed.
Stop being wicked, let babies crawl,
Accountable nurturing bad deeds, one and all
Will have to answer for your sins,
Be aware when God makes the final call.

Be Wild With Me
People walked everywhere before cars.
Now we can hardly stand for three hours.
But I'm not included in that "we", for I have started walking more and more for my own benefits.
We in America live in a society where movement is no longer necessary. Machines do everything so our brains work less: it takes years of practice to learn how to build a fire with sticks, but only a second to flick a lighter with your thumb.
The wonder of nature is lost to the neon colors and lights of our screens. We can't even hear the birds anymore.
We don't even try to.
Animals are so smart in a hundred ways that we don't know about. Think about it: if you were born in a mill and sold to live in a cage, your intelligence would depend on the activities your owner allows you to take part in. Otherwise, you circulate in that cage in a pattern of madness.
We stunt our pets intellectual growth by caging them, by showing them nothing but doses of affection mixed with angry shouts and scoldings. We treat our pets like pets, when they should have never been caught in the first place.
Animals in the wild are much smarter than the ones in cages at petstores. But the ones in labs are even more so, because they are given tests which challenge their pattern of thoughts and behaviors, but most likely in a cruel way.
So which are we? We are not wild people. Not anymore. We don't live like people that need to survive. We live in comfort, our only quarrels being those in our household or those at our jobs. So we with either in a caged lifestyle, or a laboratory lifestyle.
But we need to go back to our roots, before our ancestors roots are all dug up and paved over in concrete.
Never forget where you came from (whatever your definition of this may be); we are all walking different paths in our lives, but we've grown accustomed to sitting down far too long.
Stand up and howl, you dogs behind fences; bite the hand that feeds you and start feeding yourself.
Let's form packs of like-minded individuals: those of us who no longer want to be caged or ran through mazes.
Let's be like lions and show the sheep what true pride really means; let us all be wild and free.
We were never meant to be tame.

Hope in a cage
I see myself on the street,
I dream through madness
She is what I hold on to,
For only a fool would trust you, and I do.
Perhaps we shall both never truly bond
Though we could be neighbours.
Yet all the hope of the world will not mend,
We will break but we shall not bend.
I've turned my back and will not see you,
I don't think I ever will again.
I would live the next house over
But would never knock on your door.

Families are cages fortified with emotional extortion and abuse.
Cages we call home, because we grew up in it...

I personally feel ,
I get saturated in this cage .
I want to break & fly
But my mother & father spend
All his life to built this. - of_fernweh @ashhar I think most of us feel that. But we wait in captivity, for time to run its course... By the time the cages disintegrate we would have a made one of our own , to keep someone else.

The day is quite sunny
an abundant supply of good things
some sights are damn funny.
Break the cages of sky
escape the dark clouds of fog
dont be afraid, don't be shy.

Read More"There is a strange silence inside me
Thick layers of mist are all around wherever I see
Cages are open and birds are free
But they didn't found joy even in the branches of a tree
Buildings and structures are stood up high
But dryness is in the ground and in the sky
All the pleasures and beauty are gone so far away
Fear has captured me now and everything is falling into dismay."

Read MoreSeeing her smile despite all the aggression that she kept within her fooled me so well.. I thought she was really in love with me just like how she used to be from the very first day we felt it that way.. Her obsessiveness over how she would always be there for me seemed that it would be forever.. There were days when she could cry but she did not and showed me how strong she wants her to be despite how weak I knew she was.. But I never gave up.. I had my egos..they were bad I know..but I had them..
I loved her.. I loved her so much.. Maybe the way I love is not that kind a girl would die for.. but I know I loved her true and deep.. And you would not believe me when I say that even I didn't know I could love that way.. Its true.. earlier I was dumb.. I was obsessive.. possesive.. jealous.. demanding.. obnoxious..
I, as she said, caged her in ways a girl would never stand for.. but she did.. she stood right there staring me in my eye as I gave her all pain and felt it was pleasurable.. I am sorry.. it's all but too late.. I know..
And that is what broke my heart.. because she stood there when she did not had to.. she stood there when I never expected she would.. and I turned all over-confident and all so sure that this girl can never leave me.. I was wrong.. and it was all my mistakes I know.. At times when I must have thought with my heart I couldn't help but crave for things my skin made me urge for..
I am sorry that my sorry was never enough to let you know I was really sorry.. I am sorry to myself because what I once had was something possibly I'll never get again.. no girl's gonna be foolish as you were.. to stand still and smile when all in you turned numb..
I was childish..yes I know I was.. I did not know that the things I did could hurt you in ways I never understood..
And when you said you have to let go of us..let go of me.. I cried.. I cried because I thought you could never see me cry.. but you didn't change your mind.. I threw all my anger at you and cursed you bad..but you didn't utter a word..it did hurt you.. after all that you went through I didn't least have the right to swear at you I know.. but I was broken hearted..
Because I was a spoilt but broken little kid locked within a boy with urges of all kind.. I couldn't help the beast I was..
I am sorry.. I know all this would not mean much now..
But then again.. I am sorry..
After all as you always used to tell me with that caring stare..
I was..and I am still broke and helpless..and it would take me time to learn living without you..

Song of the Wild Woman
Precious girl,
You carry within you
The embers of hope &
The smoldering flames of
So many dreams unfulfilled.
The yearnings of all of the
Wild Women, Free Spirits,
Priestesses, Medicine Women & Shamans
Who practiced their magic
In ancient groves & hidden coves,
Passing down their divine knowledge
And sacred wisdom in whispers
Through the ages.
All of these ladies
fervently yearning for the day a woman
Just like you would run free
With that same fire in her veins,
To fulfill the dreams & unattainable desires
Of all the Mighty Females
Who came before,
But were denied the right to achieve.
The blood of your ancestors
Runs riot through that
Untameable heart & savage soul of yours.
Your ravishing body, your unkempt hair,
Your defiant spirit,
You in all your feminine glory
Are the embodiment of promises kept,
And so many wishes come to fruition at long last.
Remember this every time life
Seems to conspire against you:
You are the breathing culmination of
The longings & aspirations of
Thousands of mothers & daughters & sisters
Who came before you.
Born into gilded cages,
Tied into corsets so tight
they could hardly breathe,
All wrapped in pretty little bows,
Meant only to speak when spoken to
And marry well.
Never knowing true freedom.
Never knowing true bliss,
Never experiencing lasting happiness.
All living with the dream that one day
Their daughters & granddaughters
Would be able to do whatever they pleased
Without fear or shame.
So you listen to the voices that
Scream from within you.
Hear the echos of anguish carried by the wind
Of witches burned for healing people
And innocent girls marked with
scarlet letters
For daring follow their hearts,
For practicing their healing arts,
For being born the wrong gender.
You Live.You Love.You Rage.
And you Fight.
For you. For them.
For those women who came before.
For our own daughters.
We are the generation
Our ancestors prayed for in the moonlight.
We are their hopes made real.
So you revel in the sun,
Burn brightly & never let
Anyone or anything
Dull your perfect shine or douse
That searing inferno of a warrior spirit
You possess.
You are too important
To do anything other than
Honor all those matriarchs,
Live your life as they never could.
Hold onto the privileges they never had.
Hold fast to your rights & your principles.
Be bold. Be loud. Be fierce. Be free.
Be your unstoppable, incorrigible, audacious,
Hell-raising, headstrong, compassionate,
Provocative, resplendent, savvy, sexy
Beautifully unique self.
