Now Freedom means...

Inspired by a song I heard last last night and the new defination of FREEDOM someone shared with me.Just jotted it down now right here....

 

The memories that evoke pain

Bring an involuntary smile to my lips

When those moments are relived

They are so real and vivid

I can still hear that laughter

I can still see that smile

The twinkle in those eyes

I still want to share

Every inane thing

I still want to listen

To those words and melodies

I want those tantrums

Little escapades of insanity

I want those liberties

I wait to be sought out

To hear the familiar tinkle

Those moments seem so real

I extend my hand

To touch that feel of happiness

And the bubble bursts

I am startled to realise

I am free from the Illusion

Now freedom means

Nothing left to lose

i really like this concept. the beginning confused me a little - but then i understood what you mean - that the painful memories are the good ones.

"Those moments seem so real

I extend my hand

To touch that feel of happiness"

love that. great part right there.

made me think. made me wonder what it would mean to feel freedom in that sense - nothing left to lose.

I get it totally...someone you shared special moments with can't be there for you anymore...the realization of it all brings pain and sorrow. When you have gone through it all...
" And the bubble bursts
I am startled to realise
I am free from the Illusion
Now freedom means
Nothing left to lose"
A fresh start is bound to occur! Let that bubble burst and with it you will find greater happiness that stays! I really admire your poem and the realizations that occur throughout. You tell a great story within your poem.
