Trapped&;#063;

Locked in a steel cage
stared at by the world
tortured by your keepers
you pace up and down your prison
wondering when the torment will end
day after day you wait
your wounds getting deeper
one day you hear them say
he's too old now
no more fight in him
let's put him down they say
a BANG suddenly errupts
you feel a pain in your side
a sudden numbness grips you
as the world disappears from your eyes
A wave of blackness rushes over you
You feel a light peace within as you shut your eyes
you are finally free...
