Freedom
Edwinna Bryant
I shall not allow myself to love you again. Or anyone who reminds me of you. Or who wears the same cologne as you. Or who is built like you.
I shall love someone who is the complete opposite of you. Non- judgmental. Open minded. Willing to compromise.
I shall not speak your name again. I will forget you. I will lose you on the side of the road. I will cleanse myself of you. I will wash away all the sweet dreams, gone sour. And all of your fresh touches, gone stale.
And I shall not allow my heart to stay arrested by your love that walked away.
When the best thing, you have done for me, since the moment our lips stop slow dancing with each others. Is give me back, all that I could no longer claim when I was with you,
My freedom.
My freedom.
My .... Freedom.
