Sparkling Cage by Aaron BlairHaven't I loved you?
Yet, you would have my passion
folded back in on itself, and bound,
a gilded lily, a useless broken foot.
You would chain it until it could
never hope to prove itself to you.
You would have my body taken
apart, the pieces reassembled
into a more pleasing shape.
You would have me molded into
some most perfect vision, make
a beautiful, sparkling cage to keep
in whatever it is that I am now. 02/12/2004 Posted on 02/12/2004 Copyright © 2024 Aaron Blair
