Free

May 17, 2022

When I am home, I feel like I’m in shackles.

Wanting to be free.

Not wanting to be locked up anymore.

Wanting to be more than what I am.

Do more than what I can.

When I am free, I am able to be myself.

I don’t feel suffocated being anywhere but-

Home.

The place we’re supposed to feel safe and happy

But to me... it’s the place I least want to be

I dream of the day I move out.

When I’m finally able to breathe.

To express myself freely.  

Let all the bones in my body dance and wiggle; let them loose.

When I’m free, I will finally be at peace.

I'm a twin and I can right with my left hand.
