I wish I could be free
As the cloud that kisses the sky
Or the wind that fearlessly flies
I wish I could be free
Of the chains that enslave the soul
Of the pains that won't let me be whole
I wish I could be free
In real as I'm in dreams
Flowing as blue water of streams
I wish I could be free
To face the dark on my own
To not cry as love goes
I wish I could be free
In every cell of my blood
Like every drop of the flood
I wish I could be free
With nothing on my mind
As if I have nothing more to find
I wish I could be free
Like freedom is my right
For which I don't need to fight.

Hi Nosheen, A poem from Nosheen after many weeks. Beautifully expressed the desire for freedom from the shackles that bind the minds, and souls; the desire for freedom of thought, freedom of expression. : I wish I could be free As the cloud that kisses the sky Or the wind that fearlessly flies I wish I could be free Of the chains that enslave the soul Most passionate, very emotional. The choice of words, the rhythm, rhyme- inimitable. Everything generates lot of positive energy. This is a poem of positivity. Loved reading this exquisite piece. So, on to mypoems.. and a lofty 100++++
wishes are..wishes. we are chained. and we are not machines, so definitely we wish. is it still a blessing, that we are not bound not to wish, till now. beautiful poem and dream. some feelings like this.. read mine -a song-. humble invitation.
We long for freedom, but often we are chained emotionally and physically! Freedom can be enjoyed only if there are restrictions too, but not to the level of choking us! As far as desires are unchained, we can float free at least in thoughts! Enjoyed reading this whimsical write!
Just beautiful... loved this endearing poem. Full marks.
Nicely composed wishes of a soul longing for freedom. Thanks for sharing.
Wonderfully composed and the yearning to be free comes out so heartfelt and dignified... No matter what country we live in... no matter what culture..... freedom is either curbed by law or by our neighbors and friends and family.... and sometimes by ourselves limiting ourselves.... This poem yearns like a bird yearns for the sky- -it is totally a heart on the wing
Your poem flows with the freedom that the speaker expresses a desire to achieve. I love the line 'I wish I could be free / In real as I am in dreams' And voila....she is! Freedom to express oneself through the poem is a great start. Thanks for sharing your poem.
It's pleasant to be free like nature but it's a pleasure to be a slave of love. A wonderful poem by Nosheen Irfan.
