Caged Bird

Jun 30, 2011 19:05

So I was looking at icons - namely, the group that my current icon came from, from techno_icons - and one of the comments mentioned that one of the icons with Fai that said "Caged Bird" was a great idea for a fanfic.  I was instantly inspired and wrote a poem right then.
Not totally happy with the way it came out, but oh well, I'll improve in the future.
Credit to symmetry for the idea to use the icon for writing.  Hope a poem is alright!


Caged Bird: Fai D Fluorite

He sits in his cage

Swinging gently high above a

Bottomless abyss

The bars are made of lies and promises

Of ice and stone and magic

Woven like threads of destiny

Bonds that should be made,

Held back by the mask

On his face, with tears

Flowing from beneath,

Form the lock that taunts him

And the key that he

Refuses to see

Made of peace and future,

Of wings unclipped from treasured clasps

To stretch and stretch and stretch

To beat against the bars

Made of lies and promises

Of ice and stone and magic

And broken hearts held tight
