Freed Rider

A strong heart that once held much sorrow now free

He chooses isolation.

Yet he is not alone

His scaly companion always by his side

Sharing the freedom as the two fly.

Leaving the past behind but not forgetting.

Never forgetting.

He is forgiven for his crimes by those who matter to him

But he will never forget the things he did.

Those he loves forgave him

But can he forgive himself.

At least now in his new freedom he can finally heal.
