Born Free with My First Breath!

Born free; I was with my very first breath
onto a path that progresses through death,
rendering my mind with language and the arts
nurturing my inner child from the start.

Free to choose my way, and then to choose the right
Remembering innate knowledge of the blue light,
entry and exit this portal; mine own choice
even if society decides whose voice

was not to be heard by patriarchal ears
intent as meant and said without deep felt fear.
Tumultuous path for seekers of the truth en route,
humility keeps us strong no matter the amount

…of…

maniacal laws, negative energy
yielding no obedience from you and me.

For we really were Born Free with our very first breath
intense, italicized carried from cradle to death.
Reiterating these words to all who try to enslave
sexuality, brain washing and suppress in caves
truth and answers we all need to discover in waves.

Burning divine light out before it begins
reversing the psychic damage deep within
every bend and curve in the river and path
anchored to our spirit like ball and chain stacked.

Together they wring us in fear and poverty.
However; with our first breath, we truly are born FREE!
