Caged Tiger
by Lady Adellandra Dratianos
Age Group: Adult
There's a caged tiger inside of me
Whose heart is waiting to be freed
Whose tail swishes side to side
Anxious and twitching to abide
Whose eyes are glassy,
Whose teeth were sharp,
warned down from miscare,
Whose tongue is dry and growl is low
Because no one is there.
She lurks inside, pacing and staring
glaring and twitching to those uncaring.
Behind the bars, beyond the face
Inside the mind, freedom in another place.
Coat tangled from nary a mind
Paying for those who are very unkind.
There's a caged tiger inside of me
Who just wants to be home,
Where she belongs,
Where she's loved,
Where she's happy,
Where she's free.
Author's Notes: I wrote "Caged Tiger" when I was in the Army in training. After being gone from home for more than two months, I thought of this and wrote it down. Hope you like it!
