Freedom

He freed himself
From the human disease, 
Our misery, lies and 
Conformist ease. 

He pledged himself 
A life from hate
His god he trusted-- 
Embedded distaste.

He found the loophole 
Buried under debris, 
He found the key
Under conformity.

He freed himself from human illness 
He broke away from love and hate, 
His words of calm and deliberate stillness, 
Are words we do not contemplate. 

Though I hear him today, 
In those deep memories, 
I can hear what he would say, 
About his freedom... his discovery.

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist, and I'd love to help bring your story to life if you're ever interested. Feel free to reach out at gm@il : akiracomicart2@ or on inst@ akiraa_artly

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
