Freedom Implores Fresh Start

Again, I was freed from a mad hurricane Call it by any name, it's still the same Two eldest siblings, lost their lives in the dark Freedom implores fresh start. I needed to search, to find the right key To set free, the rainbow that is me I lied, and lived life as pseudo art Freedom implores fresh start. I wove my very own hand-made strife Piled firewood burned my studious life I was flown to the U.S., to carve life like a star Freedom implores fresh start. Meanwhile, my two eldest siblings made the family proud From in the days of carefree years, I'd known dark clouds Sometimes discombobulated, I couldn't see far Freedom implores fresh start. Until sky-light rain song transported my soul, as I wept Until I envisioned my better self in depth I never saw love, and life from God, as supreme art Freedom implores fresh start. Now, I live to learn, and hope my lessons show I can pause and ponder where I choose to go I'll wake and meditate, keeping light my heart Freedom implores fresh start. *
