Beyond the Cage: Soaring Free in the Celestial Sky



When I die, don't bind me to the earth,
Let my spirit soar high in the sky,
Unfettered, unburdened, free from the cage,
That has held me tight all this time,
Let me explore, wander and fly,
With every feather shedding my mortal form, setting me free.

My soul, now free, no longer caged,
Will journey far beyond the confines of time,
No more bound, now able to fly,
Over mountains, oceans and the sky,
Beneath the stars, across the galaxies, free,
To roam, explore, unbridled and unfettered, beyond what's deemed to be safe.

Don't mourn, for now I'm free,
Released from the mortal coil and the cage,
My spirit ascends, lifted up high in the sky,
No longer constrained by the limits of time,
As I embark on a journey, unfettered, unbound, and free,
My wings unfurled, and my heart soaring high.

As I soar, I'm surrounded by the beauty of the sky,
A freedom that was denied while alive and caged,
My soul feels a sense of relief, of freedom, of being free,
No longer anchored to the earth, and its time,
Unfettered by the restraints of my body, now a mere cage,
As I explore the uncharted realms of the celestial sky.

When I die, don't shed a tear, for now I'm free,
No longer caged, but soaring high in the sky,
Unbound, unfettered, free from the constraints of time,
Exploring a world where I'm no longer caged, but free to fly.

With every beat of my wings, I ascend higher in the sky,
Leaving the world below, a mere speck in my sight,
As I soar through the vast expanse, I feel a sense of peace sublime.

No longer bound by the worries of life, free to explore,
I discover secrets untold, mysteries yet unseen,
And revel in the beauty of a world beyond my wildest dreams.

With every flight, I leave behind the mortal realm,
And venture into the infinite, where time has no hold,
Where my spirit is free to soar, and my soul is uncontrolled.

And when the time comes for me to rest,
To leave behind the freedom and the soaring flight,
I'll embrace it with the same grace with which I lived my life.

And though I may return to the ground,
And be laid to rest in a final cage,
I'll know that I've lived a life that was free, a life that was truly my own.
