Emancipation
Don’t hold me up.
I can stand on my own now.
Even if only for a little while,
let me enjoy it while I can.
Let me breathe free air
and drink waters of liberation.
Let me make my first opinionated statement
even if I have nothing to support it.
Let me feel like my own person.
Let me live my own life.
Let me be.
