~ Inner Peace ~

Fluttering wings of fire
So desperate for freedom
All I can see
Is the world outside

On the top of the voice
I cried for mercy
Till the feathers fell
Off my body to the ground

Deaf ears they pretend
Chuckled on my pain
All for a reason
That anonymous gain

Accustomed to the chains
The seeking freedom
When I found within
Peace is what I’m living in

Table turns for good
Their persuading fell flat
Gates were opened and
The shackles set free.

Fly to freedom they said
Slowly chuckles replaced with mine
Freedom is what I sought
Freedom is where I am.
