The dereliction of my cage
is one with my whole life:
a symmetry that stems
from my lack of caring...
I've shut out the world,
shuttered my view,
then I shut my eyes.
I only exist anew because
I won't shut my mouth.

I've been absent, and I apologize. Just trying to sort some things out. Hope this is alright.
The last line was between "as it turns out, like your heart, The key was made of ice" and "As it turns out, that hope was false, The key was made of ice." Just went with the latter of the two.Ice
Thousands of words he wrote for you,
Upon a thousand pages.
Countless days, just wasting away,
Locked inside your cages.
But then one day, he found a key.
Hope was on the rise.
As it turns out, that hope was false.
The key was made of ice.

CAGES
Caged in the cages of agony
How can I forget those memories
Wearing this mask and forcing this smile
Playing along the cards , reached a mile
Pinned those flashes on the wall of darkness
Now I try to close the door of madness
Obnoxious I became
Giving the reasons, so lame
Tried to make everything perfect
Lost myself in the race of emergence
How I wish I could break
the cages that cage me
How I wish I could get
rid off this amputee

She's a wandering soul.
Confined within the cages of her mind.
The more she tries to escape,
More cages come to be.
The more she resists,
More she hurts.
And in the end,
She just let it be.

Our hearts are beasts,
That's why our ribs are cages

They were the prisoners hidden in different cages, and yet they saw each other every day. He named her fire and she named him the wind, the day they both touched and embraced each other they burnt down everything that stood in their way.

Pretty yet Broken Cages
'They are all broken people.'
But it is just how others view them.
They sang melodies, which was unbearable,
To the ears, of those who,
Who wanted to chain them,
In the prettiest cage,
Ever made.
But, what was known to none, was that,
Their tune was a spirit,
That travelled every places,
And freed their inhibitions,
Wandering places,
Telling that no matter, how strong the cage is,
Their spirit can never be,
Broken.

Read MoreI believe in boys with sad eyes and soft smiles.
I believe in girls who roar back at thunder, and can still kiss like the first time they fell in love.
I believe in people whose skin never felt home to them,so they carved home out of the dust beneath their shoes and kept on going.
I believe in all the ones who are told they don't belong.
I don't think I belong either.
I don't know what it is to "belong"
But I know that the ones shouting have nothing to offer,
That fitting road in the fad we're all starving ourselves to.
I believe in us.
The ones who never felt good enough.
I believe in the girl next door,who likes to be called "her" but woke up, today with a gender that felt like hand spun wool and spilled milk, and who doesn't know how to tell her mother.
I believe in the ones dating the wrong people.
So their parents won't have to know who is that they have to love.
I believe in a fear like that,
I believe in kindness of strangers and I believe in turning blind eye isn't what makes you bad.
It only makes you scared just like the rest of us.
I believe in people who learn to be brave.
I believe in hands picking flowers as much as I believe in the hands that plant them.
Because sometimes our hearts are too big for our bodies and they like to go bumping against each other.
Sometimes,
Love doesn't mean what you think it does.
You and I don't love the same,
But we're all here LOVING.
I believe in the collection of fingerprints you pick up from everything in our world you have touched.
If I believe in anything.
I believe that; and that is enough

Release
We keep the birds in their cages
We keep the fish in their tanks
We keep the animals in the zoos
As a selfish act to satisfy our own desires.
We release them and set them free
As a selfless act of love
The same can be said of people

Read MorePeople are free. their minds free. their speech free. free from slavery. free. but are they truly, free? They have built cages for themselves. They never want to come out of them. We pray to God. unquestionably. unfailingly. but why do we fail to question the real reason why we pray to God? why are we searching for him in statues and people when we know he left this place a long time ago? and if he didn't leave, why do we celebrate what he created and not question what he destroyed? why do we fight to save someone we can't see or feel against the very people he created?
Until people come out of the cages, we may never get the answer to these questions. #Poetry #Quotes #God #slaves #cages #souls #readwriteunite #writersnetworkWould you look at
all these free souls
carrying their cages
wherever they go?

Read MoreWhat will you do?
(comment below)
#readwriteunite #writersnetwork #freedom #cages #introspectionFreedom & Cages
Where is home?
Which is none?
What do I want?
Do what I want, want me?
These four corners I know,
The bigger world, I've dreamt of,
but never seen,
wishes and reality
is nothing but same
as freedom and cages,
mercy and sins,
letting go and dying within.
The yesterday that was the day it was,
Today is itself afraid
for tomorrow that might never become.
Stay here would I ?
That I might somehow cope?
Away I wanna go
that I might someday live.
What there is in it for me?
Staying here in my cages
but not living,
or go there which might be
Paradise? Neverland? Or nothing at all?
Falling for these cages I know
at least I could find my way around.
But there the promise of
" If there's turely freedom? "
That I might love this cage for once
or lust after freedom?
Peace and war is what would ever be
For I have cages myself seeing freedom.

Read MoreThe main issue with our world is that we do not teach girls to be themselves. Take pride in their uniqueness. But they don't, they keep telling that you need to be thin or thick, be a flawless doll. That is the reason most of the girls are insecure about the way they look and end up crying on the floor at 2 am. I won't put up with this.
Chin up princess, or the crown slips.

Girls are taught to be perfect from the very beginning
A polished porcelain doll.
Prim and Proper
Shy and meek.
Untill one day she realized.
Who she was,
A Goddess.
A Universe bursting with energy.
She was made to rule the skies
To wreck havoc on the this Earth
To be passionate
To be herself.
And she broke free.
The caged bird was free

Safe or Caged?
Ever wondered?
Why we feel safe in someone arms?
Closed in their arms, like a caged bird.
Do we feel safe in cages? Prisoners? Is it a instinct?
Ever wondered?

The cages are real and it is going to trap you too if you don't find yourself a reason. #quotes #writersnetwork #cages #authorlife #writers #writing #writingcommunity #love #reasons #lonelyquotes #lifequotes #acceptance #theunreadauthor #findareason #beforeyouloseyourself #lostsouls #reachout #recluse #excerpts #book #novel #comingsoon #seclusion #mirakee #writersunite
People want to know why I have not been in touch and it is a valid question on their part. The reason is simple. Sometimes you must learn to be alone to accept a life of loneliness. I have always been a recluse and with a few more reasons eliminated from my life, it is easier to seclude myself. Alas! The cages we build to protect ourselves end in suffocating our own existence.

Just take my hand and step into my parallel universe full of love...
My kind of love,is love, people read in books; the kind of people always dreams about.
It is that forever kind of love,where there is no space for betrayal and lies.
Where for me, only you prioritize...
You are the only one, kneeling down in front of whom aggrandize.
My love is like 11th dimension...
It's like stepping into the parallel universe, where there is only You and I.
My love is beyond all the rights and wrongs that reside in the cages of good-byes.Where dying for each other is not just a tale that people denies...
