Come Play... Trapped but free

Strapped into a chair
Looking out onto sunny skies
Looking out on to grassy fields
Trapped but free
This modern form of travelling
Strapped in with anticipation
Breathing in the liberation
Supplied from the vents above
Keeping us from suffocation
Trapped but free
Boredom strikes
Igniting the senses
Moving under no pretences
Spontaneity is key
Trapped but free
Knowing where we've come from
Where we're going is still a mystery
A destination is only a noun
A description not fit for me
Only the visual suffices
Exploration is key
Im trapped, but I'm free.

Come Play... With City Lights

City Lights

The lights of the earth, outshine the heavens

Glimmering beauty, breathtakingly bright

Skyscrapers, line the nights sky like a dream

Their electricity, blurs out the stars

Man-made, using tools taken from the earth

Functioning, to bring light from the darkness

Safety, from those lurking in the shadows

The city lights, bring warmth into our hearts

I still remember, the day’s way back when

The lights were my solitude, my freedom

They’d lead me to a place, away from home

To begin afresh, to begin anew

Where fear could no longer consume me whole

They protect me, forever, they are my home.
