I wanted to be free
I honestly always did
but I felt trapped in some way
for reasons unexplained
I thought maybe getting rid of
s
t
r
u
c
t
u
r
e
would put me in my place
I thought I could rebel and
change my self
polar
opposite
Then I'd be free you see...
because who I am isn't free...
so who I'm not would be...
But as life went on and
days grew to weeks months a year
I started looking different in
my own mirror - a cage -
bandaged wounded trapped
Away with structure away with
schedule away with rules away with...me?
I wanted to be free
I honestly always did
but in order to be free
I had to take the plunge -
accept me.
