Set It Free

Art by Catrin Welz-Stein

You held my songs captive

keeping my thoughts hidden

but, love should be interactive

dancing with life's inner rhythm

 

writing notes, pondering keys

which will unlock inner dreams

the stars and moonlight tease

over the horizon, light redeems

 

my heart locked in a cage

set it free, set it free,  says the sage

take a chance, on change

 

songbirds need freedom to sing

which key will unlock the heart

let's experience the beauty of spring

we need to find a new place to start

 

opening the door to true happiness

will you find the right note and key

to fill the void of inner emptiness

the songbirds need to be set free

 

my heart locked in a cage

set it free,  set it free,  says the sage

take a chance, on change

author's note: playing around
with some thoughts, I may re-arrange
this piece....but, for now it is what it is
