Cages - The Last Dance

I’m aware then of your desire

Silent stares from mirrors

All my gifts corrupt like flowers

Would you care I have secrets too

One more

My life

To find you nearer

Take this cage

Put me inside

for your shelf

With one more gift

You’ll find my place

In your world is

too unkind

Don’t be scared if I know your secrets

I’ll be kind to your shame as you sleep;

Quiet in my cage watching you breathe and dream away

Moments I could share

Never touched,

never seen

As close as I

from this cage

can be to you

From my cage

With one more gift,

you’ll find my place

in your world

And I feel

if words came out you’d see

were not unkind

So take this gift

As close as I

from this cage

can be to you

From my cage

With one more gift

Find my place

One more gift

you’ll feel
