Unlocked Cage

As the years passed, I feel more and more like I live in a cage and I realized people around me feel the same way, too. This cage is called “harmony.” People change due to harmony. They have to blend into society, causing them to lose themselves. I have started to want things people expect me to want, and not what I want.

The keys to the cage are in my hands, yet, I cannot leave because I have to first figure out where I want to go after I escape.

When harmony becomes confinement,

When lies become true,

When life feels vacant,

We had lost the dreams we meant to pursue.

The more we struggle to break out of this cage,

The more wounded we became,

Then we finally broke off and we are free,

Just to end up in another cage we did not see.
