Acceptance
I haven’t truly lived until now.
I have been locked away for so long
In a small room in a place that was never my home.
Home is where you feel safe.
My freedom without judgment is where I feel most safe, maybe that’s home.
That’s how I feel now.
Full throttle and no chain linked connected to the wall on my tailgate.
I broke that.
A cloud of smoke from the exhaust and my tires working hard to break the chain made me feel like I was in the sky.
I flew.
Down the coastline, windows rolled down
Serendipity is waving hello with the waves.
