Free as the wind

I have always been fantasized about the sky
   The rustling wind
   how freely it moves with no care
   I want to dare
   to take a step closer
    to break the chains
     to run away from the chaos of the world
      to somewhere far away
       to find freedom from the ground
        so that my scars will fade 
         people will call it suicide
          cowardice but who cares?
            I am done 
             for once 
              just once 
            I want to be free

relearning how to accept oneself seeing that we can be free without ceasing to live. Ask for help, you are worth being around a whole lot longer.
