A poem about being free and escaping all expectations.

Gazing into the mirror A symmetry of reflection Eyes once so familiar A portrait of rejection External life so perfect Travels so a plenty The camera soon switches off Alone and now so empty Likes are not important All dressed up in time The costume masquerades my pain My internal crime Every bird that’s once caged Deserves the chance to fly Breaking of the shackles Before we crash and die, This rat escaped this race For I only run for me Nobody now to answer to This butterfly is free For now, there are no answers To my internal questions So two fingers up to the big wild world I’m done with your rejections

Without freedom we are never who we were created to be. Precious freedom the bringer of peace and productivity. So beautifully penned.

Why the caged bird sings. Eventually turns into a butterfly. An interesting poem to contemplate.

Its nice when we get to a time of our life where we answer to no one
and we decide to be kind to ourselves, and live in peace,
Lovely poem, well written, and so understood. Thank you for sharing.
