Wishfully Glum
I'm half agony, half hope
With my silenced voice
And no other choice
But to elope.
Letting go, wishfully glum
Of my life thus far,
Follow the star
To freedom.
For society did shove
In our hearts a dent
We weren't meant
To fall in love.
Borrowed the first line from Jane Austen.
Dedicated to all those who have been prey to man made divisions, boundaries and societal norms. It's time we break free and not be contained within these illusional walls that keep us from reaching out to one another. Let's break barriers and speak the language of love.
