A Ballad.
Jailbreak. (Part 1)
The moon danced above the murky clouds,
And poured it’s light upon the wrinkled ground.
The wrinkled ground is where I lay;
A place I did not wish to stay.
Yet a prenatal karma forced my life,
To suffer within this foul edifice.
Unfazed, I faced the darkness alone,
Sat till the break of dawn.
Watched the stars disperse their light,
And mourned, when they finally died.
Then the sky was bright, with the blazing sun,
Sent all nightly remnants on the run.
And I stood, filled with zest,
As I waited for my lovely guest.
She appeared in the face of infinite love,
Like an angel, sent from high above.
And I observed her, as I’ve done through the years;
Marked her countenance—devoid of fear.
Hence amazed, I chose to inquire:
Reply, my emblem of solace, whence thy fear?
She then smiled in her elegant way,
Enabled my perplexity, all at bay.
‘Fear not,’ said she, ‘For liberty, is not faraway’!
And she extended her rosy palms—thy tantalizing tray,
Upon it, lay a sole key.
In second’s time, I did realize, that it was my fate indeed, to be free!
