Freedom

Tafpia Otecimme's picture

 

i.                     Why do you feel the need to torture?  To push others down low where the sun cannot possibly reach them.  Suicide.  It can happen.  You need to wake up to the reality that your actions do not go unnoticed.  You cannot live your life without consequences.  Life will catch up to you eventually.  So safe in your perfect world.

 

ii.                   Do not let others drag you down.  I wish that you could see that.  Could see that your actions have power.  Have words, have meaning. I wish that I could sing for you.  Could dance and laugh and shout for you who are without light.  I will be your sun.  I will be your savior.  I will drag you out of the dark and push you towards the sun.  Come with me.  Oppressors beware. 

 

i.                     For I will push you down.  You will not stand in my way for I am unconquerable.  You will not be able to stand for I was one of you, and I made myself the stronger by casting myself away and remaking myself into someone that I could trust.  So beware.  I am freedom.  You cannot bring me down. 

 

ii.                   Do not despair those without hope.  I will come to you.  I will not leave you.  I wish that I could say this to your face. But I am lost.  I am without a means to speak.  So I will wait until I can move again.  And then I will come to you and free you from your chains.  I do not kill.  I do not hurt.  But I do crush anyone in my path.  For these are my people.  They will be free.

This is my pledge.  This is my penance.  This is my reality.
