Paper Cranes

Fold the paper
Corner to corner
Whisper secrets in its creases
Mold it
shape it
to whats its meant to be
String it up
for everyone to see

I am like a paper crane
Folded and molded
by the society around me
Strung up
for everyones enjoyment

Unable to fly
Unable to be free

No More

Cut the strings
Spread my wings
and Soar

And finally
FINALLY
I'll just
be Me

Author's Note

Inspired by all the paper cranes on my desk at work

An origami puppet came to mind. No one controls you, only you have the right to make your own choice and pick the road you wish to follow. No one has the right to judge you. This is what came to mind when I read this. Favorite.
