I can't stay here <br />wrapped up in myths <br />of a time <br />I can't forget, yet <br />cannot take the time <br />to relive. <br /> <br />I am expanding in all directions. <br />And a new world is there <br />that I have discovered. <br /> <br />Freedom, liberation which begins <br />as a word and becomes a way <br />of existing. <br /> <br />I survived while others <br />of my old crowd dried up <br />and ruined their potentials. <br /> <br />Fame, recognition. <br />I don't care for these as <br />much as some think, and yet, <br />I care more for them than <br />they would understand. <br /> <br />Acceptance. <br />An odd sort of word. <br />What if some accept me <br />and others do not? <br /> <br />Does it really matter?<br /><br />Chris G.
