My Lovely Cage
I built my own walls
from heaven.
God ordered me.
I'll need them.
To confine my vessel.
My vessel is untamed.
It cries out to my walls to let it out.
It yells it's desires.
It demands vengeful drinks.
My walls are generous.
They remain silent.
It demands power over it's own power.
It pushes hard.
But my walls are strong.
They listen quietly,
never letting a door appear.
A lion is most humble in it's cage.
