The Crack in the Wall

They keep me locked away

Never to see another day.

It always dark and cold,

except for the one ray of sunshine that burst through

the small crack in the wall.

It's warm and bright outside of here.

But they keep me away, 

saying it's not safe.

The crack in the wall is my ticket out.

I claw and try to dig my way out.

The crack is no longer there, 

just a big hole leading somewhere.

I peek out the hole,

curious about the outside.

Scared at first,

but now I can spread my wings,

and fly.
