The Meadows and the breeze, the sun and the stars....they bring tears to my eyes. I rub them off along with the grime on my face and scrape once more at the unyielding soil. And every time I am rewarded with face full of dirt and stones. I wipe them away and think,"Still not enough" and I scrape again.
Lately the walls have been caving in on me. The pressures of my other life has been taking its toll, or is it the fact that I have lost it completely ....the will and the strength to come out through to the other side.
Shhhh....don't make too loud a sound....they might hear. Kind folks of the ground above me. I roam amongst them freely like a bird but they know nothing of the dark secret that I have. For even sweet souls such as their's shall shudder when they hear of my plan.
My plan, to live like I want to - To lead a life that I want to.....is it too much a crime?
One more cave-in today, the stars seem against me....but I shall not give in, no I shall not give in. Because If I do today I shall do forever, coz this action of mine today shall remain with me forever as a history of me and add to what I am. I shall not let such an action become of me. I shall not let it be a part of me. I shall not given in.
Time flows every so slowly, painfully slipping away from my fingers....my I am not done yet....
and I scrape again....with the sand blinding my eyes...but the dream they cannot take from me....
The dream that I see....the dream that will be true.....one more scrape....one more try...and I shall be free...!!!
I shall be free!!!
