Do you understand what freedom is truly
Barriers…Cages…Walls….
Restraints…Shackles…Cuffs…
I can’t breathe…I can’t stand up.
I have had enough.
Truly that man that I was is Dead
this is his Eulogy.
I am no longer him…He is no longer me
I have had enough.
No more looking back…Moving forwards…
things are looking Up.
So good looking out…there is no shadow
of Doubt…Better off now…Free at last
from My past and the Grave where I
put it.
Remorse…Guilt…Shame…
Hurt…Loss…Pain…all are different
and yet the same.
The burden the blame…Cursing my name.
Truly this is a Eulogy.
Now deceased when I cease to be
drowned in my Grief…
Finally I can breath…A moment of peace
I am free…
R.I.P.
