FREE

A rippling roar burst out..
 amongst thick, grey, parting clouds, oh how it rained!
Frequent downpour of tears, seized so sudden
  saw a rainbow, life seemed so colourful again.
Twas my heart crying out,
  from beneath its thick, grey, cracking coat
Breaking free from a cocoon, call it love, infatuation
suffocation, now i can breathe, us both.


Rays started peering in
  illuminating my heart, my eyes and now i clearly see
Hope still floats above me, a sun so certain
  felt like flying, for i was free.
Should i soar like a bird once caged?
or once crippled, now with mended wings
i was flying, though i never left the ground, a state of mind
Depth of hopes and height of possibilities freedom brings.


Whoever said the best day of your life
 can't be that of a rainy one.
When else can you see a rainbow,
value hope, value colour and the rays of the sun.
A silver lining indeed,
these clouds revealed to me
 Restored my once lost hope
and now I'm flying cause I'm Free.
