Freedom Poem by Sareeah Keelyn

What was wrong from the start
soon fell apart
I tried to hide
what I felt inside
I hid and I hid til I could no more
My heart became tired of the chore
I hesitated to do what my heart desired
The damage to the other heart could have been dire

A friend just met
took my hand
and lead me towards a brighter land
I was free
the chains broken
and the sun came
filled me with love
gave me hope

And with freedom, I ran
towards the light I wanted
I run still
Wondering
Is what I love
in love as well
it is too hard to tell

The thought
if it's not
could break me
As I have broken

I wished to save
and now I wish to be saved
light and happiness or
pain, so much pain
