Freedom

A bird in flight 
A feather in the wind
Relavations of a past 
No one knows within
Yet I transcend to planes
Of intrepid wonder
While others sleep
My mind floats asonder
And why I ask is this so
Some brains dormant 
While others to and fro
Insanity maybe the best 
Will white coats come
Knocking to take me 
A life less stressed 
Locked in a room
Alone and drugged up
Food on a tray
Drugs in a cup
Doctor feel good 
Stops by to talk 
I refrain from speaking 
To make this 
Journey stop
A bird in flight 
A feather in the wind
I am not insane 
My thoughts are
Held within 
When they free me
From this curse 
I will return 
To a life well versed
