Resting Freedom (Written 4-12-20)
I sit on the living room couch
warmed by the orange fire
My eyelids grow heavy
dragged down by the long day
of school and human interaction
From the dread of having
to repeat it all in the morning
My eyes finally close
the soft glow of licking flames
sneaking through the thin barrier
In seconds I'm floating
soaring in the air above
my resting body
Here I can fly and chase my dreams
while my aching bones relax
My worries about tomorrow
float away too
I am free
[This is the original]
I sit in the living room
next to the warm fire
My eyelids grow heavy from the long day
of school and homework,
and the dread of the coming day
My eyes close
the soft glowing embers sneak through,
and I'm floating
I'm above my body, soaring in the air above
I have no worries about the next day
I am free.
