~xXx~

Like a caged mouse, running on his wheel

Taunted, by a visible freedom he so desires

but cannot reach

So to, are you...

Caged and racing

Circling round and round

Pausing momentarily just to breathe...then

Frantically running again

Day in and day out

Trying to break free!

CLIMBING THE WALLS!

Only to discover......

You are exactly where you started again

Caged...by society

Part of a neverending rat race

Like a mouse, running on his wheel

Taunted by a visible freedom he so desires

but cannot obtain
