Finding some freedom

Caring dove

Green lives inside sometimes 

on items in a house 

when green also lives lightly outside in the soft strong sun 

on the light leaves 

by the friendly flowers 

 

nicer to be outside 

away from those four walls 

when feeling trapped 

away from those walls 

that remind you 

how trapped you might feel sometimes 

in self and in life 

 

to go where you please 

you might not be able to 

but you can step into the garden atleast 

Find maybe a little more freedom beside the birds 

singing their own tune without limits 

being themselves 

because they can be 

and their where they wish 

 

let the words flow feeling that little bit more free 

when feeling trapped in self snd in life 

in walls of your mind or in life 

you escape onto paper 

speaking words you wish 

just like those birds that sing their own tune 

finding that little bit of freedom 

just by using your voice

    Great metaphor. We are all ultimately trapped within ourselves but we can look out the window we can open our doors and let in the light and receive visits from nature and friends. A most lovely metaphor

      Thank you 🙂
      I think some of the trapped feelings comes from my dissociation but yeah also that lack of confidence in life . Today I wished I could have had my sisters company but I can’t ,.. it’s like that feeling of we can’t do something or we can’t always feel as we wish . But yeah .. nature is comforting and helps a bit when I’m upset / or struggling with how I feel

      Think we need to escape how we feel sometimes .. because it can be difficult at times

      Some people have confidence to do whatever they want .. ( their lucky )

      Thanks so much for the lovely comment

            Excellent metaphor. Indeed, there is no where else to be but stuck inside ourselves, then to throw disassociation into it. Well written, my friend. I could feel this. 🌹👏
