Freedom

By Dion Bowen

By Dion BowenPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

What do you do when your life is upside down,

And you feel like your digging your own hole in the ground,

your world is full of dark clouds,

You become invisible in a large crowd,

You look into the mirror and see your reflection of what your life could’ve been,

You feel like it’s over and there is no way you can win,

You find yourself realizing you were extremely happy,

You were right where you needed to be,

Losing everything makes you want to be deaf and blind,

I’d rather live deep in my mind,

So you don’t have to deal with your issues,

Trying to hold back that tear so I don’t scream I really miss you,

We weren’t the perfect couple or what ppl define as love,

But we made a vow to love forever to God above,

My life went out of control this year and I’ve never felt this feeling before,

Anything you do without me hurts cause I want us more and more,

This fight is like I’m boxing young Tyson going round for round,

Every time I get up I get knocked down,

I need you back in my corner helping me get to the next round,

I know you were waiting on the right time to get out,

I feel so dumb you stopped loving me a long time ago and I never figured it out,

I wanted to be whatever you needed me to be,

But now you really are focused on being free.
