May 2016
Surreal
Stripped of all I am
Trapped and confined
My only possession is time
Consciously, creeping away
Anticipating an impending consequence
As it bares fruition to... judgment
Blooming swift and unbiased.
Surrendering to ruminate
I deliberate
What is freedom?
The ability to exercise liberty
Exemption from external control
My mind travels beyond these walls
Without bounds
Without bonds
Desperate
Eager to escape
Away from the bland taste of this reality.
Swept by the winds beneath me
Relative lightness;
Buoyancy
As my eyes sweep to the horizon
Tasting the air
Savoring the new appreciation
Of all I took for granted
Is this how freedom feels?

What a day for a daydream.
