Being Free

Nicolas Simpson 1983 (Illinois)



Turn the page of the next chapter,
Flying in a helicopter,
Feeling like I'm free,
Free as can be,
Flying high a a bird,
I'm speechless I have no word,
Making progress of changing you'll see,
Taking my things with me,
I can be me you'll see,
Staying out of trouble for good,
I will  do everything I could,
Praying for others to get out,
It's getting close for me to shout,
Taking each day fast,
Hoping that I'm first and not last,
Trusting the " Big Man" for positive outcome,
I'm praying for me to be healthier,
Taking my medicine like I should,
Doing eveerything I could just to be free......
