Freedom to be...

I walk a lonely road, muddled in thoughts of my true destiny,

trying to answer enigmatic questions profoundly...

I know you tried to reach out to me, to pick me up

free me of the trouble; and with joy make me jump!!

But the monster which shadows me, is far too big

with its tentacles, that hold me strong..

In darkness I lie, held in its arms, safely surrounded by an outer shell

Protected from all the fears, and always thinking all is well...

Little dO I see the right and wrong,

life is all but a happy song

Till, one day, I see a curious soul break out free,

and jump outside to live and breathe...

It created a little space in my shell, to move a bit;

As I walk around, I wonder if I am happy in my pit

I think and think, and my mind goes into a rolling spree

wondering what would lie outside if I break free??

I know it is time to let go of the worries and move on

afterall I am fearless soul, who should fight life heads on!!

But, I am only a small creature, with all the wordly fears

sometimes I am full of tears

So Today, I look up to thee

to give thy child the strength and courage, to be what I want to be!!
