Be Free

Reflections bouncing off the walls
Back and forth, left and right
I cant see my own self image
Blinded by the light with no sight

Falling down the pebbled path
I get back up again and try forth
Trying to recapture my soul once lost
I will find my invaluable self worth

Standing on my own two feet someday
Is something I am working towards now
Dont know what tomorrow will bring me
Just trying to get through the day here

I have pushed myself down to the grown
Stepping on my own backbone until none
No positive attributes have I found within
But know they do exist but being held down

Bursting to get out of this emotional cage
The key is within an arms length from me
I look around and see nothing yet its there
To unlock this barrier is what I must do

I want to be free of the pain
I want to be free of the self torture
I want to be free of the self hatred
I want to be free of the lack of desire
I want to be free of the loneliness still
I want to be free of it all
Let me be free
