Everyone Wishes To Own A Lioness



Everyone whishes to own a Lioness
but no one likes her roar

they like her wildness
but abhores her untamed soul

domesticate her and chain like a dog
and guide her to wag her tail and lick your foot

forget carnivorous nature
and start eating vegatarian food

but then why chain a lioness
go bring a swine

its precious then all
my freedom is mine

  2. Quite insightful. We all start loving someone for their difference, and then spend an entire life making them look like us! Let the Lioness in each one of us survive!
