Un-harnessed Spirit

.

Some actions instill

A mental illusion

Of depression and

Giving up all hope.

.

Sprouts of concern

Grow and blossom into

False signals and

Peers’ minds wonder.

.

My sentence of living

The life of another

Has now been served.

I embrace being me.

.

Goodbye panty hose,

Strapped spike heels with

Sharp, pointy toes, and

Toss the executive suits.

.

No longer in the limelight

With diamonds, linen and

Lace imposed upon me,

The harness is broken.

.

Too long deprived of my

Free spirit, barefoot life,

I flourish in the pearls,

Denim and leather life.

.

Tanned leather … not rawhide!
