like a solitary bird <br />in rhythmic flight <br />across distant skies <br />i search <br />for my liberation. <br />like a lonely blossom <br />hungry for dewdrops <br />rare as april rain <br />i long <br />for my emancipation. <br /> <br />elusive freedom! <br />you bind me with chains <br />perennial as the grass. <br />but i weep no more <br />of ambivalent nights <br />and mornings without sunshine. <br />i fear no more <br />the passionate nightmares <br />and splintered emotions <br />borne by a curse. <br /> <br />like a whispering wave <br />anxious to kiss the shore <br />i shed <br />the quiet remnants <br />of a shattered vision. <br />i bid you adieu <br />o, oppressive one! <br />i want to fly <br />and keep on chasing rainbows <br />‘til there are none <br />left in the sky.<br /><br />Denn Meneses<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/incubus-2/
