Free as an eagle

"You are free as an eagle!"
you told me once
and I was happy to be it.
But now I'm confused.
Free as an eagle?
Are eagles free?
Why would you say something like that
to me?
Don't you know that eagles are not free?
Not free anymore?
Or do you know?
Are you trying to tell me
that I was free
once,
but now that I'm not
I'm still the symbol of freedom?
Or maybe I'm the one who's wrong
and eagles are fee again.
But I suppose I would know.
No,
eagles are not free anymore.
Not yet.
