Freedom

Mountains balancing on thimbles

The weight is crushing

How much longer can this hold?

The tightness in my chest

The angst in my veins

The lump in my throat

Wondering, reminiscing, dreaming

Reality and fantasy merge

Waiting for clarity

I blinked on and my life has passed me by

Twice and I'm gone

Behind closed eyelids I relive lost days

Am I the same?

An old film in my mind

A nostalgic soundtrack tugs on my heart

Memories, pain, love

A cliche story of love, loss, and a better life
