Liberation is like a ringing in your ear.

Silence is like the golden sun.

My friendship lasts like tree trunks.

My pain is exhausted wildfire.

Understanding is my unlocking key,

and compassion is my locket.

If my emotions were to pan out

the way I thought they should,

would I be as content as I feel right now?

Sizing up my distances remaining

and seeing what is left is fun.

Happiness is the feeling

of knowing that you’re near done.
