I Should've

I Should've

A Poem by Jibbs
"

Freedom is a beautiful thing... we must remember we choose freedom or captivity!

"

Remembered.
Ya, that's what I should've done. But I guess it's just natural to forget what real freedom feels like. But now I know that shoulda woulda coulda's will only hinder my progress to freedom.
So here I stand, FREE.
No strings attached. No barriers. No life support. Because now, I don't need it.

I eat, breathe, and sleep away MY life. Yes, that's the beauty of it all. It's mine. My future lies in my own hands. I've laid down enough rubber to announce my arrival. I need to do epic s**t because ... I AM EPIC. I should've remembered that.
So, now what? It's like that moment in a movie where you KNOW something is going to happen, you just don't know what. So you wait. And wait. And BOOM. Like a firework, the explosion of events that follow leave me asking one question.
Why?
Why me?
Why did I wait so long to grab the reigns of my own life? I should've held on tighter when I had them earlier, but I let them slip away. But then again, here I stand ... FREE.
I'm determined to find what makes me happy.
I will win and re-win. Victory consistantly.
Nothing but my goals will tie me down.
And I will never forget to do one thing .. what I should've done in the first place.
Remember.

When you learn to remember, and also to accept those memories, you have started on a new and better path. Not always pleasant, but it is amazing what you will find.
