After gravity fades
And the crowds die away
And all that's left is me
And I'm finally free
Not to sleep, or be scared, or be anything
But me
When I write like this right
For just a moment
I am free
And for an instant I feel
That there's no wrong in me

I am free
When I complete a set of poetry, no matter how large or small. I get such a wonderful feeling of accomplishment now. It's like a calming breath which seeps out from my chest. It's not easy to describe, but I just feel... almost more centered somehow. Like there's less voice in my mind.

And simply put... it's nice.
