i wrote this exactly three years ago this day. i didn’t realize it when i went to look for it, and when i saw the date, i found that coincidence a bit funny. it’s not a well-written piece at all, but it does well to summarize what that first year felt like. Sometimes it’s good to look back and see where God has brought you from when it felt impossible, to remember that He can do it again.
Free To Fly Away
Grew up with you always by my side.
Just the two of us. I was always on for the ride
Two little kids, together and carefree
But the next day, bliss ended
You tell me you’re now free
My heart pains.
At the thought of your sweet, innocent smile.
I wish we could go back in time.
Maybe just for a little while…
Back to the days where I didn’t have to worry.
When you hurt me like now,
you were always there to say you were sorry.
Gone, you are, from parents who “held you down.”
Gone, you are, from a God you once joyfully found
You say you’re now free
ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME?
I can’t bear the sight, every time I see you.
I guess the world has finally freed you
i realize that i have blogged two poems in a role. That would be a first, and a last. lots is going on in life right now. i’ll blog soon about it.
