Breaking Free.. Poem by christopher murphy

Breaking Free..

Rating: 5.0


so the chains finally break
i am set free
it is no longer us
but back to being me
the shackles of pain
fall to the floor
my heart starved of love
yearning for more

i feel so alive
so finally free
i know no boundaries
at least none that i see
i held on so long
my heart turned to stone
there will be no turning back
as i set out on my own

splendid write. A desire to be in union at times becomes secondary if it takes away one's space and freedom.

Hi Chris I am a new member to this site, and i am just exploring at the moment. But being a local lad i Hit your profile first.Your poem breaking free, i dont know if i am to congratulate you on an excellent piece of verse, or judgeing by the contents feel sorry for you or equally feel happy for you. Id just like to take this moment to say that never has so much been said in such a small amount of space even if you cut your poem down to just the one verse, it says it all. im not a critic my friend but well done, well done indeed.....
