I let the chains on my shoulders slide to the floor, huffing in anger
As opposed to my usual silent resignation,
Channeling my inner goddess.
That bitch has been sleeping for so long now.
The illusion falls, breaking into a million shards,
Gifting me isotropic melancholy.
I tear the rags I've hung on my body, pulling on
My glittering jumpsuit.
I've wasted so much time drooping. I straighten my backbone,
My head held high. Chin up, Just like Daddy say.
I put on my Freedom, glitzing like a pretty jewel,
The crown on my head.
Determined to strut the rest of my life,
Like the Queen I am;
Deserving all bliss, letting my past nestle
Right where it belongs.
In the past.
