The Hunted
April 3, 2012
Cut the cord holding me down!
Parental ties limit emotion’s flight.
Let me be, set me free.
That final straw, camel breaks.
Almost there bereft of snare.
Molting back, re-opened scars.
Little reminders of self hate.
It’s better this way, to ease this day.
Tensed, with triggered-thoughts. No one cares, empty stares.
One last breath, final flight toward freedom.
Click.
