Variety of Poems

Just Want to Be Free

These are actually lyrics to a song i wrote a while ago but i guess it can be considered a poem as well enjoy :)

Too tired of being held back,

sick of feeling like I'm in a trap,

I'm gonna give this shell a crack,

I'll get out of this cell within a snap,

gonna break free at last,

my liberty is within my grasp,

I just want to be free,

I just want to let go,

I just want to take off,

and let time go by slow.

I just want to..i just want to be free.

And once I break off these chains,

I will show the world who I really am,

I don't care about looks all that matters is if i got the brains,

otherwise I will be the prey, you be the lion and i'd be the lamb,

so I have to step up and take control of the reins,

gotta get myself out of this hole where i am damn,

have suffered too many pains,

It's time to get out the slam.

I escaped the walls that had retained me,

now I'm not afraid to speak my mind,

no longer contained in the dark where i couldn't see,

I became my hero, and left my awaiting coffin behind,

this stronger side of me is who i'm ment to be,

If i kept my old life my death sentence would have been signed.
