Freedom
Sometimes I wonder,
when,
when will I be able to live.
Just for a little while,
just for a little while
I want to be able to run freely
through the lively streets of freedom.
Each step feeling lighter and lighter
as I stray further away
from the reality of the world.
I close my eyes,
and think about where
I want to be,
and then I’m there.
The rays of the sun
shining down on me,
as if they’re trying to say
go.
But I’m not sure if I should listen,
if I should go back
or glide forward,
into
the endless universe of my
dreams.
As I take a step forward,
I hesitate
and step back,
now,
stuck standing
in the middle of
a thin rope
holding, dreaming
on the left
and responsibilities
on the right.
But I know,
eventually,
my rope will break.
