What Freedom Means: A Poem Of Self-Liberation

This short, reflective poem invites you to consider what true freedom looks like for you. It’s a gentle reminder to fully liberate yourself, beyond the small steps, and embrace the freedom that feels right in your soul. Let this be your permission not only to define your own version of freedom, but to shed everything that isn’t truly you along the way.

Freedom.

It's an idea peering out of the cracks of a barred-in house,

Never having seen the light of the sun.

Five bars may feel like freedom when you've lived under ten,

You see.

What freedom means to me may be different to you,

Neither one right or wrong.

Yet,

You deserve to taste the freedom of an obliterated cell.

Even if you have no knowledge of these options,

No bars,

Ropes,

Or ties.

You can choose this,

And once you do,

The vision of freedom may crystallize into an unknown form,

Strange to the capacity of what your eyes have ever seen before,

Foreign to your vessel of what you have felt,

Bigger than what you ever thought possible.

A miracle,

Really.

It's magic poured into your existence.
