I want to be free.

I want to be free
from the clutches of this world
so that I could fly freely in the vast sky,
and chase the dreams, I once strangled.

I want to be free
from the cage of my thoughts
so that I can experience peace,
and loosen up the invisible knots.

I want to be free
from the judgements of people
so that I can be unapologetically me,
and make my life gleam and sparkle.

I want to be free
from the slavery of my soul
so that I can fix my broken life,
and make it whole.

I want to be free
from the feelings of my heart
so that I can love myself again,
and also never fall apart.

    I was impressed with how well Shivani articulated what freedom feels like. I’ll venture a guess that many of us have had similar thoughts. Life does put us through the wringer, doesn’t it? 😉

  3. “I want to be free
    from the judgements of people
    so that I can be unapologetically me,”…. the judgements will always come but being ourselves unapologetically is something no judgment should take from us, thus if we truly embrace our own uniqueness 💚

    Lovely poem and expression!

  4. Is there such a freedom in the realm of humanity? I wonder…
    I had a dream that we humans will one day grasp the true meaning of it. But it was just a naive feeling the child in my heart has ever been craving for. Eyes wide open on this world I cannot feel its reality. Words seem to be the only way that makes it true.
    I am a nobody that sees the world as it is, lost in the mase of our selfishness and our ignorance.
    I have a soul that suffers the blindness of our kind to what really matters in this univers, love, compassion, contemplation and understanding.
    Nevertheless I trully love you through the feelings that we obviously both share deep in our soul and I hope you will find answers that will fulfill you dreams in life.
