FINALLY FREE
When the stars are a stone’s throw away
And you hear the nocturnal birds sing in the tenebrous night,
You wonder if you will ever be
As free as the feathers during a bird’s flight.
And you hear the nocturnal birds sing in the tenebrous night,
You wonder if you will ever be
As free as the feathers during a bird’s flight.
You imagine being at liberty as a feather
And facing all the menace,
But a little voice in your head
Makes your mind’s inward eye offset.
You then take a huge leap with immense fear in your heart
And risk flying without a shield.
That is when you realize that you are light,
Yet strong as a feather and are finally free.
