Resistance is Futile

Freedom

You cannot tame me.

I'm like a bird

carried by my own wings.

I'm like a scream

heard from miles around,

the sound of freedom

from someone who's

been trapped for a long time.

I'm the finishing pose

to a dance

that's been choreographed

with unbelievable emotion.

I'm a teenage loves

last kiss

as her father honks the horn.

I'm a rebels

first tattoo

and the smile they wear

when their parents see it.

I'm the final note

of a beautiful song

ringing out in a concert hall.

I am the wild.

You cannot tame me.
