| A Caged Spirit |
|
| A beautiful Princess, Is trapped in a cage, So much sorrow, So much rage. |
| She can't get out, Or so it seems. She needs to love, She needs to dream. |
| But how to open, That sealed door? There must be a way, For her to soar? |
| A key somewhere, That she must find, But where to look, Or find a sign? |
| She ponders this question, Day and night, But always the answer, Is out of her sight, |
| A knight rides by, And sees her there, She thinks he's another, That will not care, |
| She turns away, And starts to cry, And shouts to the heavens, Why? Why? Why? |
| I have always been gentle, I have always been kind, Why do I suffer? Why must I be blind? |
| The knight dismounts, And falls to his knees, In front of the cage, And says, "Princess, please...." |
| "I am the one, Who has sought you so long, Let us talk for a while, Let me sing you a song." |
| Through many long nights, They would talk and listen, 'Til the morning dew, Would start to glisten. |
| They awoke one morning, And knew it was true. That love had blossomed, And hope was renewed. |
| "I will find a way," He said to his bride, "To open this door, And cast it aside." |
| "And when I do, And you are free, Never again, Will there be need for a key." |
| "You will always be cared for, you will always be loved. I Swear on my soul, And all that's above" |
| He reached for the door, And pulled on it's latch, But the door would not give, For his strength was no match. |
| "We must wait for awhile, Until the hour is right. Time must pass, 'Til we can see the light" |
| "I can wait no longer." She spoke with a tear. "It has been too many hours, Too many years" |
| "My heart is weary, And longs to be Free, My strength has left me, But I will wait with thee." |
| "If you promise to love me, And stay by my side, One day I will join you, And away we will ride" |
| "I need you, my Princess, And with you I will stay, For as long as it takes, For us to see that day" |
| "And when that day comes, And we are as one, Our joy will embrace us, Like the warmth from the sun." |
| "And never again, Will your heart be weary, Your eyes will be bright, Your smile will be cheery" |
| "I will complete you, As you complete me. And our love will continue, Unbridled.....and Free" |
