FreeDom exists in the mind
What I seek, and sometimes left behind
I think I gave it away
Unknowingly at first
Perhaps it was stolen, like a enslaved child at birth
To be taken and reared
Oh you know what’s best for me
Best home, best schools, best love to better me
But even when I had it all
All was not enough… to quinch the thirst of freedom
Like confusing love with lust
I sought it in small parts, tiny moments, stolen glances
I found it in a book, a poem, a moonlight night, a world of chances
I felt it in church, during a rising solo and then again at home
When Donny sang his song for me…I felt it when all alone.
I gathered up the nerve and took flight, wings against the wind
Destiny changed, It is now, how it should have always been
I am free…and I can’t go back!
Freedom exists
Freedom is
Me!

Two poems involving the subject of freedom. Are these from a recent event or from a flashback?
