I Choose To Be Free

a poem by Jacob Jones

By Jacob JonesPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

when everything is dark

the light sees me

when my mind feels lost

I look for a violet sea

I choose free thought

and to think differently

I find myself surrounded

in a world of creativity

and in this world

I’ll always see

the color of things

beyond you and me

like the color of sound

and the way music speaks to me

I find overwhelming beauty

in the things I’ll never touch or see

I find it easy to feel lost

in who I’m trying to be

but I’ll never be consumed

by material needs

and just like the autumn leaves

as they change and fall off trees

I choose to be like color

because color is free

inspirational
