I'M FREE LIKE THE WINDS,
AND THE HEAVENS ABOVE.
FLYING HIGH,
LIKE A DOVE.
I'M A BEE LOOKING FOR MY FLOWER.
ONE TO LOVE IN MY FINAL HOUR.
MY HEART IS LIKE,
AN OLD EL CAMINO.
IT'S BEE BROKEN MORE THAN ONCE.
ARE YOU THE ONE,
I CAN FINALLY TRUST?
THE ONE TO SET ME FREE,
FROM THE DARK OF DUSK.
YES YOU ARE,
YOU HAVE SET ME FREE,
FREE LIKE THE BIRDS,
FREE LIKE THE FISH.
WHEN GOD SENT YOU HE ANSWERED MY WISH!

The author's comments:
MY INSPIRATION FOR THIS POEM IS VERY SIMPLE. I WAS ONCE IN A DARK STATE OF MY MIND WHERE I THOUGHT I WOULD NEVER FIND LOVE. "FREE" REPRESENTS FINDING TRUE LOVE AND BEING SET LOOSE ON THE FIELDS OF LOVE AND TRUE DESIRE. IT'S NOT NECESSARILY FINDING A SOUL MATE. BUT SOMETHING AS SIMPLE AS FINDING A FRIEND TO PICK UP YOUR SPIRITS. SOME ON THAT OPENS DOORS IN YOUR LIFE. THATS WHY I WROTE "FREE' BECAUSE SOMEONE HELPED ME ME SEE THROUGH ALL THE BAD. NOW I ONLY SEE THE POSITIVE SIDE TO THINGS.
