This is something I wrote in math a few weeks back. I really like it, and I hope you all do to! I decided to post this to show I'm not dead... I PROMISE I'LL UPDATE SOON!
Caged behind bars
The lark tries to sing
As the unwritten melody
Begins to ring
Sounding through the room
Empty as can be
Without the emotion
Lost trying to be free
Stars shine through the window
Brightening the sky
But the lark can do nothing
The lark can only cry
Rain patters on the clouds
Flickering by the moon
Until night surrounds her
Coming all too soon
The city lost to flames
Masked by innocent cloaks
The hawks continue to fly
As their wings go up in smoke
Lost battles become forgotten
Bloody fields too
The world still travels on
How they tried to renew
Yet the song is still heard
Through deep memories tread
Because the caged lark knows
Secrets are best kept by the dead
