I Want To Be Free Poem by Tashi Coote

Slit my wrists
Take my eyes
Throw me to the other side of life
For you're killing me slowly
You torture me every day
I want to be FREE
Let me out
Or let me be
Comfortably numb
For my sight you took today
And turned my life into
An endless dark day

I walk this dark maze
Blind to the world
I don’t know where I'm at
Don’t know where I've ben
I want to see again
Now you took my tongue so I cant talk
And break my legs so I cant walk

I feel something
I hear the kindling wind
Blowing threw the walls
I smell the sweet scent in the air
Now I know I'm free from
Your hell
For now I can finally rest in peace
Beneath this Black Rose
