Free Will

we live in a world

that chains us

with fears, and

traps us in a race

we think we have not

made the choice, and

that it is preordained

a fate we are born with

but this is untrue

because it is

we who have

made that choice

to be infringed upon

to be tossed, turned

hassled and wired

yielding to the perils

of endless expectations

doing things which we

really do not understand

achieving a myriad

of unwanted goals

at the expense

of burning our souls

in a twilight revelation

of the glorious light

I decided freedom

it shall be for

the rest of my life

I choose the unbidden

I choose serendipity

I choose FREE WILL

I choose to be ME!
