What was I thinking When I saw a caged bird? I thought she was singing because she wanted to be heard . You might think it's absolutely absurd, But open sky was the place she always preferred. Cage wasn't bad , But It wasn't as good as the sky . Everybody always had a question "why" . It was because when in sky she could flight high , Instead of flapping her wings in a frantic way due to which she died . All she wanted to do was fly , In those grey clouds and blue skys , It was those green trees she wanted to pass by, But eventually she was in a cage .. she had to die.
