Free at last
June 13, 2015
I was going insane
So sick of the pain
I would complain
and was just generally vain
I'd stand in the rain
and clutch onto my veins
I didn't have the brain
To realize I had the whole world to gain
One day I tore all the chains
Took a sip of some champagne
Ran out, screaming, driving in the fast lane
Because I decided to let go of my restrains
That black stain I had on me for so long
It was gone, and I am free

It's a very relate-able poem. I love it. It's actually quite beautiful. :)
This is for the people who are struggling to let go of something that brings them down. I'm telling you, trust me, you will be able to cope without it and you will soon, if not now then later, live a happy life.
