Breaking Free

a world away from where I started it's not a hallucination or rag tag illusion I remember the phone ringing and the answer that never joined us I'm removed from it like the classroom when we were young I tried to jump through the hoops invisible ones circular and scary the promises of love and forever disjointed attempts at realization everyone who is close is far away in dreams we attain that freedom the light was lost but a sliver of sun remained through closed eyes I tried to feel the remnants of a discovery fueled by fantasy and feedback the voice that tells you everything is alright I believe it's god sometimes letting go of the resistance it just feels better....
