What does it mean to be truly free, to let loose of the chains and shackles.
I don’t know, nor the scientists, philosophers, or even historians.
Freedom, in my mind, is being allowed total outwardness with little judgement.
Freedom, which we all seek, waiting just around the corner,
ever-winning the eternal game of hide-and-seek.
Freedom is true democracy, freedom is no judgement, freedom is bo...
The sky isn’t a freedom.
It is a liberty in which we take advantage of.
The sky is a freedom.
If freedom was meant to be a closed door.
No mammal hasn’t once looked at the sky and uttered,
“Why?”
The sky isn’t a freedom.
It is a reminder of the vast that surrounds us.
A reminder of the nothingness we are to the divine.
Why must it be we who were meant to be when we can’t even celebrate life?
The...
Hark, the light
It will bring its body in plight
Take the forgings of misery,
Of guilt,
And of madness with its flight
Coos in her ears,
‘With the love of years,
Wed but still full of fears,
What he, the tyrant hears,
Silent to you,
Hidden with the corrupted’
So that she, the demons lady
Will be driven like a restless maiden
She talks,
Talks when dark it is outside
And to no post, she is tied

What does it mean? To be unshackled, to breathe freely without the crushing of heavy chains wound tightly around one’s shoulders and chest?
When I speak of my affliction, you look away lest you be perceived as someone who communes with liars.
Commune. Communion. That concept is foreign to me. My interactions are limited to the few spirits who understand that my affliction isn’t something that c...
Free is he who bites the hand:
if this is true
Does this mean
There dogs that know freedom
With able mind and soul
that roam the streets
with bruises on their backs
from fighting its own breed
I wonder,
Is this freedom?
To be alone
Bobbing for scraps
to lay your scars on the cobblestone
Cold to the touch
and what
parallels dose this have_
to my life
what does the lice in his fur signify?

She was supposed to have a future. She was supposed to have a choice. She was supposed to be able to enjoy her life to the fullest she could. She was supposed to be able to live life the way she wanted to live. She was supposed to be free like the birds she saw soaring up high in the heavens.
But she didn’t have that option anymore. She had to be rational now. She had to listen to her father now...
“Hang on to the world as it spins us around”
Plant your feet firm to the ground
Take a leap in an effortless bound
Your day is here
I don’t believe in miracles
I believe in freedom
Pay attention to the subliminal sounds if freedom
Planted into our everyday lives
Dear spirit held captive by the web of collective order
My soul is calm and bordered
My soul shouting to the sky
And I want it...
Let me soar like the crows that
harvested on your flesh,
Allow me to flee like the rats
that rest on your grave,
I’ll be the thorned tendrils that
snake around you, as a test,
If I never leave fully promise
me you’ll be afraid,
Make a swear to me you’ll
return the emotion, to me, you
gave,
I’m no more, like a finch, caged,
Let me be your worst nightmare,
but the one you made,
