They all think I'm mad

They all think I'm dangerous

So they lock be up in a room

All alone

Away from my loved ones

Away from my companions

Away from my nest


They think they're helping me

But they are oblivious

They are going to smother my soul

They are going to extinguish my flame

Who will I be then, I wonder


A boat without oars

A leopard without spots

A bird without wings

A fish without fins

A snake without fangs

A person without dreams


I am watched

The piercing glances tear my skin like hooks

Trying to strip me bare

I can feel my hide melt away

By their treacherous acidic words

I want to scream and shout

But I know that'll make them clout


So here I am

In a room full of people

Yet my soul vies for connection

For the affection of my dove

For I am starved of love

And I'll carve the letters of hope

On my heart to increase my odds

And have faith that my torment will pass
