I know why the caged bird sings
He sings his song of longing
and his desire to soar in the open blue sky
He cries for something that he does not know
He cries for something he does not have
He cries for his freedom
He hopes that someone will hear his song
and set his free to feel the sun on his wings
the wind beneath him and the clouds above him
but deep down he knows
that no one will understand his song
yet he sings as loud as he can
What a sad little bird in the picture! I like what you say about singing loudly even if the song isn't understood, even if it's about something you haven't figured out or known yourself yet.
