Being Free

I got something that you don't
I can say things you just won't
I am someone you can't bear
because I do things you don't dare.

Strutting, smiling, feeling fine,
singing, dancing, keeping time.
Looking at you watching me
on my way to being free.

I can shrug and move right on
and you just stop when things go wrong.
Look at me and look at you
and all those things you're scared to do.

Actually, though the poem is brilliant beyond words, great writing, Bill said it best. It does sound like you're the one covering the hurt. Wonderful write anyways!

Warm Love,

Charlotte ... what is left for the one behind? Maybe to drink some cherry wine ...
or is it a slower pace ... to the one ahead
does not always belong the race. You sound like the one covering the hurt. Not the one who did the damage. Bill Murray
