Freedom For One

Freedom For One

One out of many
Not like the others
There is an open feeling of rebellion
It watches and learns
Seeing what it didn’t want to see
A life it could no longer live
A million doing what they are told
Sharing movements and thoughts
Free yet controlled
Unable to think for themselves
One out of many
Breaks away
Spreads its wings
Refuses to obey
It lets its mind take flight
Going places the others cannot imagine
It is free of its bounds
Free to live
