How
Bittersweet
To
Awaken
One morn
The
Sunlight
Penetrated
The bars
Of
The cell
One has
Languished in
For
A life time
Light
Reaches in
Through
Through
The window
Not of itself
Unusual
In truth
A
Not of itself
Unusual
In truth
A
Daily occurrence
However today
The refraction
The reflection
The shadow
All occur
Uniquely
Offering
Seeing
Newly
Offering
Seeing
Newly
Good news!!
Your
Clemency
Is
Pending
On
Your
Willingness
To
Swing open
The door
The
Key
Has been
Under your
Pillow
All along
One
Wonders
Just
How completely
(and if)
One
Can now
Extricate themselves
From
That which
Is as
Close
As the
Next breath
While
So seductively
Familiar
As to be
Potentially
Terminal
While
So seductively
Familiar
As to be
Potentially
Terminal
How much
Bearing
Can
Esoteric conjecture
Have upon
Conditioned eyes?
How to
Navigate
This
Implied liberation
In a
Society
Built
On agreements
Perpetuating
Disconnection
Elevating
To
The pedestal
The fiction
Of
Doing
And
Worshipping
The God
Of productivity
Key
In hand
The
Doorway
Vanishes
To issue
An invitation
The
Greatest hurdle
Is not
To be
The disdain
He is
So sure
Awaits him
On the
Outside
Solitary
Confinement
Did nothing
To
Convince him
He was
In
Good company
Freedom
Will
Only become
Complete
If
He is willing
To
Love and forgive
Himself
To
And
Without
An
End
And
Worshipping
The God
Of productivity
Key
In hand
The
Doorway
Vanishes
To issue
An invitation
The
Greatest hurdle
Is not
To be
The disdain
He is
So sure
Awaits him
On the
Outside
Solitary
Confinement
Did nothing
To
Convince him
He was
In
Good company
Freedom
Will
Only become
Complete
If
He is willing
To
Love and forgive
Himself
To
And
Without
An
End
