I Seek Liberation

I seek liberation,

From these bonds, these boundaries,

That hold me tight,

In which my soul is confined.

I want to soar,

Towards the endless sky,

With open wings, without restraint,

Without fear, without burden.

I seek liberation,

From this worry, this fear, this sorrow,

That each day makes my breath

A little heavier, a little harder.

I yearn for freedom,

From thoughts that hinder me,

That stand in the path of dreams,

Like obstacles I cannot see.

I seek liberation,

From the darkness that fills each corner,

That keeps me away from new light,

And dims my spirit every day.

I crave that peace,

Which absorbs every pain,

Which turns each tear to a smile,

And brings me back to myself.

I seek liberation,

From the cage I built myself,

Where I am both prisoner and guard,

I want to be free from myself.

Yes, I seek liberation,

From every bond, every illusion,

That keeps me from my true self,

I seek nothing but liberation...
