Shadows twist,
Chains grip tight—
But
Within, a bloom,
Petals break the night.
Breathe.
Release.
Let the dancer lead,
In silence,
You’re freed.
Wings unfurl,
Weight fades.
Rise.
Author's Note:
This poem is a reflection on inner freedom and the quiet strength that comes from letting go of mental barriers. I wanted to play with short, simple lines to emphasize the idea of release and finding peace within. Sometimes, it's the moments of stillness that help us discover our own wings.

Freedom from within is more crucial. Well explained! Using short terms yet explaining a lot is not usually a task a lot can achieve. Still you nailed it <3
