Pagliacci's Cage

You appear to me like sun’s golden clouds.
The fair heavens enjoy subtle company.
The light breaks through your perfectly placed shrouds,
With the ease of a softly played symphony.
Your rays of beauty flash quickly through my mind.
Our pasts swiftly collide, crash like thunder.
Forceful feelings of allegiance leave me blind,
Precisely how lightning yields me in wonder.
But, your infidelity left me no choice.
Quiet rage took away every lone breath.
Each lying word took credence from your voice.
Uncontrolled wrath led me to gift you with death.
While in my cell, the future stands uncertain.
My last chance at freedom fell with the curtain.
