Free

If I were free,
to truly be me
I would set the world afire.

I would give because there is a need.
I would hug because a hug is needed.
I would dance because it's a passion that feeds me.

If I were free,
to truly be me
I would give the world my arms
and wrap it like a gift
from my heart that wants to warm
the unlovable souls
that nobody neither needs nor wants
so they shut the door and let darkness in

If i were free,
I would be their closet friend.

If I were free,
to truly be me
I would give away the stars
and hold the hefty moon in my hands.
while walking softly in the sand.

If I were free,
and I mean truly free,
there would be no wars
because global peace would overflow
And communication would be the only way to go.
But that is only if I were truly free.

If I were free,
I would love and take the risk
because love is always worth the wait
and the fear it takes to fall in love and give it all a chance.

If I were free,
There would be a place for solitude for all
and time to spend  with one's self
and reflect on what their life has meant.

Free. A powerful oxymoron in a world of obligations.
Free, a word that's complex in a world that's in a mess


But free I am nevertheless.
In my mind, I will always be truly free
in a silent, soft and sacred way.

I choose to be free.
