When a stranger tells you something, <br />we’ve been fretting about for months <br />the relief in us brings tears to our eyes. <br />We feel more relaxed <br />and joy comes back <br />into our worried lives. <br />It is as if a curtain <br />that has been shrouding us <br />has been suddenly taken away. <br />We feel happy within ourselves. <br />Feeling as if nothing can go wrong. <br />We want to shout it <br />from the nearest hill or mountain around. <br />We are free! <br />We are free! <br />Free from the shackled <br />that bound us <br />and was dragging us down. <br /> <br />10 April 2009<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/we-are-free-3/
