To Freedom

Such an abused idea. Who doesn't want it?
This is why I want it.
I want to live just a little more free each day.
To love when I want to love. To cry when I need to.
So each act each moment allows me to be me. So I let myself feel the way I feel.
So my heart is my mind and my mind my heart.
So I can speak knowing the pain it will cause me. but a pain that makes me feel human and alive.
Do I sound morbid? Who knows, maybe freedom is a morbid idea. But then again, it isn't.

It's Fearlessness.

From all I am afraid of.

of pain of wrong of disappointing of consequences of rape of embarassment of mockery of judgment

but also freedom from.

I love the skirt. I won't wear the suit.

And that is why I want to live just a little more free each day.
To be me. Not you, you or you. Me.
