I Am Free
I seem to have trouble
writing poems
when I'm happy
because when I'm
sad
it's all about you
but when I'm
happy
it's all about me.
And now
that I've shed
the last remnants
of you
from my body
and my mind
I am
finally, finally, finally
happy
and
free
and full of the life
you took
from me.
I feel like
I can let
my skin breathe
again
and my smile
can be real
instead of fake.
I can dance
without my joints
aching.
I can laugh
without feeling
your hands at the
back of my throat.
I can write poems
without my hands
shaking.
I can eat
without feeling
nasty.
I am NOT
a label you put on me.
I am me.
And I am
happy.
And I am
free.
