Running Towards the Light


Searching for myself

In between time

In between space

Shackles off

I am running towards the light

Free to live beyond

-fear-

      beyond

-captivity-

Coming to terms.

I need to do better

Potential

I word I never believed in

until now

A word I never believed in until I started believing in

-myself-
