THE BURDEN OF FREEDOM

Funny how we
Suddenly grew up,
In a matter of somedays,
To feel the steel of
The double-edged sword of Freedom.
Funny how the time inverted,
And the colours,
We had so lovingly adorned one with,
Turned into a pool of Black.
It all seems a twisted game-
The one we played so willingly,
With our eyes closed.
Were we so wrong?
Were we really destined for
A dead end?
Frayed emotions
Underlie a weary mind.
Waiting for an ignition,
To spark back
To Life.
My dreams are not
With a broken heart.
Though, clearly,
I can’t say,
That I don’t feel
A lil
Relieved and cheated.
Used and misunderstood.
Crying is not for me.
I’ve left my tears far behind.
In a road,
That I consider no longer mine.
Let the sham recede now.
I can no longer
Be patient any more.
Let us both pay heed to
The duality of existence.
And not drift aimless
Any more.
