We are free

We are free

A Poem by Ahmad Cox

Our hearts are free
We are free when we
Set out to be in our
Souls and hearts

We tend to chain and
Restrict ourselves and 
Not seeing our true
Worth and beauty

We tend to lie to 
Ourselves and tell
Ourselves of things
That aren't true

We are whole and
Beautiful in our
Own ways and 
Our hearts know

The truth to be 
Free with our
Hearts and minds
And souls is just there

Waiting below the 
Surface and letting
Us know we can 
Let go of all of the

Things that burden 
Us and keep us from
Seeing ourselves as
We truly are

I am glad you could appreciate it.
I also see that all people have this light in them, no matter how small or dim it is there. And its is their inner happy. more people just need to find it and let it grow until it glows out from them.

I am glad it could inspire you.
I CAN RELATE TO THIS. I BELIEVE THAT WE ALL SHOULD BE PROUD OF WHO WE ARE, EMBRACE OUR CREATOR-GIVEN QUALITIES AND VARIOUS GIFTS, AND LET HUMANITY BENEFIT FROM US THROUGH OUR UNIQUE CREATIVE WAYS, BECAUSE YOUR OPINION MATTERS JUST AS MUCH AS THE NEXT MAN OR WOMAN,
SO LONG AS WE STRIVE TO LIVE IN COMFORMITY WITH THE CREATOR OF HEAVEN AND EARTH.

MAY THE LORD ALMIGHTY BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY THIS NEW YEAR!!!
