A taste of freedom

I never asked for much;
a palace,a porche car nor a queen for a wife.
all I asked for were life's essentials;
good health,shelter,happiness and
a little love would do,
but these you deny me.

I thought you valued me,
I thought I was important,
yet to you I was of no meaning
a meaningless, meaning importence.

It is there all written on your faces,
"who cares?"
"I don't give a damn!"
so I'm left wondering
"the gods must be crazy"
if not then I'm the looney.

living a lie,you impose on me,
but that I won't lie low with.
"I'm I a circus?
or a form of sarcasm to you?"

it's only a matter of time.
soon my wings will
F L I P
and
F L A P
to
F R E E D O M
where I'll chose;
my life
my friends
and
my love,
a taste of freedom.
