pet from upas by tonn

a door, a lock, a key, and then
a twist away from seeing the light of day
the line in the sand, the beginning and the end
of their hopes and their dreams to walk on their own four feet
on the soil of the earth

Sold!
to the loving family
Sold!
to the lonely soul

and i'm weak at the knees, and their chomping at the bit
you must dream of being free, you could almost, almost taste it
and the sun seems so free and the breeze smells of grass
you might never feel its heat, forced to watch seasons pass
for the comfort of another, your life's lived behind doors, behind glass

Sold!
to the aging heart
Sold!
to the lonely soul
