The Electric Start of the Flyaway Heart

My heart fidgets and has fits of rage
The ropes that tie at the thigh
Keep fusing my metal cage where they will display
The infamous heart detached of wings
So carefully extracting an intricate maze of beating
I can feel it slowing and I inhale deeper the smell of sage
Ready to give in to give up
I open my eyes and see your smile
The one that is
The electric start of the flyaway heart
