I’m in a place
where hearts can’t beat

Minds lose trace
of thoughts

Tongues are held

Ears won’t hear
words unless their told from inside the soul

I want to
release myself from this enclosed place

To walk boldly
beyond the territories of my ancestors

It took a long
road for me to walk down

For me to learn
how to open my mind and

Escape the realm
of deceit and malice to stumble upon the road to recovery

A victim of my
own demise

 I am free from a world of rejection

Forgiven

I await my fate

 Punishment is not something I fear but a
jurisdiction I let myself become accustom too

These depictions
of right and wrong only confuse the better half of you and me

To not become
lost we reject the unfamiliar and embrace the norm

We can truly be
set free when our minds are willing to be healed
