freedom

we were meant to live for so much more

have we lost ourselves

somewhere we live inside

somewhere we live inside

i don't want to keep going through the motions, following orders, walking in circles. we worry about the shadows pooling in the corners of the box we've confined ourselves to, others have confined us to, not even beginning to wonder about the sun pouring through the holes in our prisons that creates those shadows, never occuring to us that there is more to life, more than these little boxes, more than hate, judgements, worry, why do we live this way, trapped behind negativity, betrayal, why can't we open our eyes and peer through the cracks in our self-made prisons, to the beauty of outside, with a single word the walls of these cells would come crashing down, we could be free, i don't want to keep going through the motions, i want freedom.
