With these words that
My past self wrote,
I feel the weight of invisible chains-
Lifting.
Happiness, joy, excitement-
I feel it bubbling up inside me,
A voice inside me whispering
"I am free!"
Realisation fills me-
I no longer need to hide!
I am not afraid to share
These words from my past,
My present, and my future.
And so now I say-
With these words,
I free myself from my past.
These words I shall never again contain,
I let go of my past!
Victim, no more-
Only survivor...
Warrior!
Freedom...
It beckons me-
My past,
It no longer defines me!
Begone, for you are
Naught but faded memories!
I release you into the winds,
So that you may forever fade away.
And that I may,
finally...
Spread my wings-
AND FLY!
