Freedom: The Pearl

Nothing but the sky,

And the ocean

in view.

Dreams appear

in the reflections of the waves.

Hands freely stretched out

to the ends of the earth.

The sun basking its glow

upon my single figure.

The sea is in my blood—

I feel raw emotions throughout

as I fly with the main mast.

I am completely carefree.

Caressing breeze flows through

wisps of ebony hair.

Eyes close,

my mind is cleared completely

as I start to soar.

This is what it is to be free.
