Somewhere... out there...

"Shut up!", I said
to none but me
"You think too much -
just let me be!
I've listened to you
far too long and
what have I to show?"

Nothing...
not a single thing
for years of
doing what was 'right''
The 'good girl'...
that was me you know
but underneath,
this very day,
a rebel angel
grows her wings -
finds her too long
muted voice and
hears the music's
rhythmed breath...

She moves her body
to the dance
and smiles
because she breathes


~Vicky L. Raynes

love of power the world will know peace.

Great ending, Vicki.

I enjoy reading "freedom".
