Freedom - such a wonderful word but sometimes it seems out of reach and I don't even need to search outside for the power controlling me. It's within, restraining me from living the life I desire.
Sometimes when it rains I want to dance in rain
but... a hesitation...oh what will people say...I am not a kid
Sometimes I just want to sing aloud....
but...a complex... my voice is not so perfect
Sometimes I wish to write boldly
but...my comfort zone pulls me back
Sometimes I wish to call an old friend I haven't talked in ages
but a thousand thoughts clutter my mind, like, she may wonder why after so long...
Thousands of wishes are, alas, crushed under thousands of such unreasonable reasons.
And sometimes we think someone is controlling us, but again we are wrong. It is not the other person who controls us, it is our desire to make them happy, our fear of losing them, our fear of conflict, that actually controls us.
The chains restraining me are inside me and freedom is just a few steps away, but only if I dare to take the first step.
Did you ever dare to take that first step?
very well said its true in very field
