Here is a poem I wrote today, please read it and let me know what you think. Peace.

We fought for a freedom
Again and again

We had love for this freedom
Despite all the pain

We thought potential
was something to gain

we swam in an ocean
of dehydrated rain

So,

I fought for a freedom
That was surely insane

I had love for this freedom
That was only a game

I "realized" my potential
I had something to gain

Yet I was swimming in an ocean
Of dehydrated rain

Now,

I live for a freedom
Free of shackles and chains

You cannot fight for freedom
Demons cannot be slain

I "AM" my potential
Disillusioned from gains

I'm refilling this ocean
With hydrated Rains





Hope you liked it. Its important to know that you should not seek to kill your demons. Just the thought of seeking and destroying the demons you may have is exactly what the demons want you to do. Whatever your demons may be, come to terms with it. Do not resist it, look it straight in the face and tell it whos in charge and greet it with love.

-David D. L. Sherburne
