CAGED FLOWER
She carries a hill on her chest,
a mountain behind her
and her face is a rose
Her thighs threaten to leave their container
A glance at her is like taking alcohol before meal
Back you look again and again
Your heart becomes a cheetah
Increasing the pressure in your groins
In the walls of your mind,
her body graced your bed
Again, it happens
Today, you'd be a man
you jumped behind her
Like a lion set to attack its prey,
married her to the ground
and eased your pressure in her.
She's hurt, but your heart
is a hardened metal bar
You padlocked her lips with a life threat
Now, she's weak
Her belly contains the world;
a globe on its own
Her pride is lost
You've crushed a dream
You've caged a beautiful flower.
