Relaxed is a state of mind
I don’t feel much.
I call out to the heavens
For peace of mind,
Calmness, Serenity—
A sense of Ease.
I feel tied down by my own mind,
Tossing this way and that
Creating scenarios in me
That may never happen.
Ravaging me like a shipwreck at sea
Enveloping me in dis-ease
And Discontent.
I long for the day
I can sit and breathe
And remember
I am all I’ll ever need to be.
I am enough
I have what I need.
I don’t need a plan
I don’t need an exit strategy.
I need to smile and laugh,
To have fun.
I need to play and exist while not locked
Behind the bars of my own
Private Prison.
I want to be a part of the fun
They are having,
The freedom they are feeling.
I want to find a place I fit
Among the masses.
I want to be seen, but instead
I hide behind the curtain,
Peeking out
Like a shy little school girl or
I act like a biker in a black leather jacket and a cig
Too cool to care.
I long to be unencumbered by Fear.
Free to be me
And only me.
