freedom at last

freedom at last

saddness across my face

fingers crossed behind my back

that one day happiness rides my way

but the only hope i had as a young girl

was to get on my knees and pray

pray i win this race

slight smile come upon my face

seeing this reality... what a taste?

its a dream come true

that iv'e found you

my heart is free from being imprisoned

living a lie

trying to fight the day

just trying to get by

trying to live a happy life

evreyday was a sacrifice

had nobody to talk to but jesus christ

and now im free

i can fly like a bird

lead my flock its way

be free

i can happily say im on my way

into the grace

of this new found place

Simply beautiful and very lyrical. This was a lovely read

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
