FREEDOM

I couldn't feel freedom at night
I was locked up in a toxic marriage
I wanted my freedom
But it was aborted
The outter me would smile
But the inner me was abducted
You controlled my body organization
You tortured me like a slave
I sang freedom like I was Beyonce
I needed people to hear me outside
I knew my friends were waiting for me
Like a seed that's about to grow
People told me to walk out
But your sound pulled me up like magnet
I danced  along with the wave
My bones wouldn't run, they were aching
I had to depend on the wind to push me out
My soul had to find the strength in the storm weather
I had to run faster like a tortoise
I kept on pushing myself like I was in a race
Till I saw a new morning freedom.
