Finding Freedom

Time was my greatest enemy.
While it held my hand and told me tales of past glories,
It was leading me down a path where redemption was not an option.
The failures tagged along, never getting a headline, but never abandoning their right to be known.
This road seemed endless, and then, in an instant, it was done.
I was done.

All those moments that blurred my vision, They disappeared silently into the night.
No tears were shed, not a single breath missed,
Your words didn't possess me anymore.
Unsure when, or how, freedom was found,
But welcoming its company like an old friend should.
No pain was felt as, for the first time, you let go.
And in turn, so did I.
