FREEDOM
My heart beats in anticipation
as I stand at the edge of the cliff
with a little trepidation
I want to swoop off that cliff
and dive down with exhilaration
and dance upon the waves like the seagulls
My heart might burst in sheer joy
the taste of salt air upon my tongue
and the sheer appreciation
That I am free
It is far sweeter than any honey-wine
this briny taste of freedom
